What else can I help you with?
How do you deactivate a nuclear plant?
Cut all of the power off
How much power does one nuclear power plant give off?
The power output of a nuclear power plant can vary, but on average, a typical nuclear power plant can produce around 1,000 megawatts of electricity. This is enough to power roughly 1 million homes.
How much radio activeness does a nuclear power station give off?
Effectively zero outside the plant boundary
What is nuclear power plant decommissioning?
It is safely disposing of the bits of a burned out power station. (As nuclear fission gives off neutrons, anything near a nuclear fission reaction itself becomes radioactive over time, so it is a big job to take down a power station safely)
Are the big towers in a nuclear power plant smoke stacks?
No, the big towers in a nuclear power plant are not smoke stacks. These towers are cooling towers used to dissipate excess heat generated during the nuclear power generation process, not to release smoke or emissions.
What is blinky off of the simpsons?
Blinky is a 3 eyed fish from the small stream near the nuclear power plant where Homer works.Here is a picture of him
How much co2 emission does a nuclear power plant give off?
Nuclear power plants do not produce carbon dioxide emissions during their operation. While there are some carbon emissions associated with the construction, maintenance, and decommissioning of nuclear power plants, they are significantly lower than those of fossil fuel-based power plants.
Percent of US using nuclear energy?
About 19% of the electricity used is from nuclear power, but all the lower 48 states of the United States use some nuclear power. Alaska and Hawaii are separate. Electrical power is conducted on a grid. The power goes into the grid from various power stations, and is used by various users. If a power plant goes down, the grid distributes power continuously because other plants continue and take up the slack. There are not many people who can say their power comes from a specific power plant, and most of those are probably off grid users (people who generate their own power). One estimate is 180,000 families, which might be 900,000 people, are off grid. In addition, roughly 700,000 people who live in Alaska and 1,300,000 in Hawaii have power that does not come from nuclear plants. That totals about 2,180,000, or about 0.7% of the population of the United States who use no nuclear power.

How Nuclear power station work?
A nuclear power station uses heat given off by the controlled fission of enriched uranium. The heat is used to boil water, the steam blows through the vanes of a turbine, and the turbine spins an electrical generator.
Where do nuclear power stations work?

Why India need nuclear power plan?
The same reason as the other countries that have nuclear power plans. Firstly to show off power. The other reason : Fear. Not even for energy generation, nuclear capability is justified due to the high risk that nuclear power plants represent.
