If nuclear fusion was possible how many KWH would it produce?

A nuclear fusion reaction has the potential to produce large amounts of energy, far exceeding current nuclear fission reactions. It is estimated that a single fusion reaction could potentially yield millions of kilowatt-hours of energy. However, practical implementation and scaling of fusion as a viable energy source on a commercial scale is still a significant challenge.


Why is the deuterium from the oceans considered a potential energy source?

Nuclear energy is a type of potential energy. On the other hand, this may also refer to "potential" in the sense of "possible". It is possible that we harness this nuclear energy one day.


Environmental benefits associated with energy nuclear fusion?

Nuclear fusion produces energy without greenhouse gas emissions or long-lived radioactive waste. It has the potential to provide a virtually limitless supply of clean energy. Additionally, fusion reactions use hydrogen isotopes, which are readily available in seawater and do not pose the risks of nuclear proliferation associated with fission reactions.


Can nuclear fusion continue indefinitely?

Nuclear fusion, like any process of producing power, uses fuel in doing so. In the stars, where fusion is the source of their energy, hydrogen is being used in fusion, producing helium plus energy. In any star the supply of hydrogen will eventually run out and the star will die, but its lifetime will be immensely long, many billions of years. On earth, if fusion can be made to work, it will use isotopes of hydrogen which are abundant, so as a source of energy it would last for many thousands of years.


What percentage of energy usage is supplied by nuclear energy?

Nuclear power plants provided 13.5 percent of the world's electricity production in 2010. In total, 15 countries relied on nuclear energy to supply at least one-quarter of their total electricity.


How much potential does nuclear fusion have to become a major energy source for Canada?

Nuclear fusion has significant potential to become a major energy source for Canada, largely due to the country's existing expertise in nuclear technology and its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Fusion promises a nearly limitless supply of clean energy with minimal environmental impact and no long-lived radioactive waste. While advancements in fusion technology are still in development, ongoing research and investment could position Canada as a leader in this transformative energy sector in the coming decades. However, achieving practical and economically viable fusion energy remains a challenging endeavor.


How many fraction of sun supply of hydrogen used for nuclear fusion?

Almost 100% of it.


How much energy can nuclear power use if it was in the world?

I think you must mean how much energy can nuclear power supply , not use, and it is in the world-where else? In the US there are about 100 nuclear reactors and they supply about 20 percent of the nation's electricity


What would be the advantages in using nuclear fusion to supply your energy needs in the future?

Nuclear fusion offers numerous advantages, including abundant fuel supply, minimal greenhouse gas emissions, and reduced nuclear waste compared to fission. It also has the potential for high energy output and improved safety due to the lack of meltdowns or long-lived radioactive waste.
