Why does Singapore use fuel power stations to generate electricity?

Answer 1

singapore uses fuel power because of the fact that suffer from tsunamis ,and neuclear power stations would be under to much presusre and explode leaving singapore with more devastaition than what the tsunami would of left

no offense, you obviously have not researched. Yes, that is the reason why MOST countries use fuels. That is correct. It is also probably your country's reason. However, Singapore DOES NOT HAVE ANY NATURAL DISASTERS WHATSOEVER. Therefore to say the damage caused by the tsunami would be a lie. An unintentional one, but a lie nonetheless. Sorry for being sharp, I don't like people that spreain misinformation, ESPECIALLY about Singapore. you make us sound so powerless... To answer the question, its the cheapest way of generating electricity, easily accessible, no need to build expensive power stations.... Also, as I said earlier, Singpoorest isn't exactly exposed to strong winds. we don't build dams because although were an island, our seas are used for ports and beaches. We can't dig it in the middle of nowhere because we're a tiny place and need the place for housing. As for nuclear power starions... relations with countries are important for a place with no back up resources and land space. nuclear power is considered a threat as it is powerful and can be used for war. if people want to do trust singapore, we must come across as open and not experimenting with dangerous things that can be used to stab others in the back. Hope this helps!
