Nuclear Energy was at Low and affordable cost, compared to other sources of energy, particularly if the need for nuclear warheads was one of its end-products. Now, if we add mining pollution, CO2 emissions, stringent safety measures, possible catastrophe compensations, decommissioning cost, environmental degradation, radioactivity dissipation impact on people in the vicinity of nuclear installation, nuclear fuel reprocessing and disposal, transportation safety, handling hazards, technical monopoly of the nuclear industry and unsustainability of Uranium deposits due to its limited resources of high U235 content, we can say that the most expensive and risky investment is in nuclear energy, particularly after the privatization of many large energy companies and also after Fukushima Disaster on March 11th 2011 (see more at face book: Nuclear Free Jordan)>
If you visit the site below, you can see MIT estimate of cost, where nuclear energy is the most expensive.
Latest German research ( The German Renewable Energy Federation-BEE) has proved further that if all factors are considered the actual cost of nuclear energy can reach Euro 2.36 per KW.hour.
What else can I help you with?
What is a limiting factor for using nuclear energy?
There are quite a few limiting factors for using nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is very expensive to produce for example.
How much does nuclear energy cost per joule?
See the attached link below for a survey of the economics of nuclear power
What is the consumer cost of nuclear energy?
I refer you to an article linked below.
How do you use nuclear energy in a sentence?
Nuclear energy is obtained by the fissioning of nuclei of uranium235, in a controlled chain reaction in a nuclear reactor, which produces heat that can be converted to electricity by normal power plant methods.
Why isn't nuclear energy cost effective?
It is not true. The levelized cost of a kilowatt hour electricity from nuclear energy is cheaper than any other source of electricity except hydraulic power in some countries.
What is a benefit of using nuclear energy?
It does not pollute and is a very cost-effective energy source.
When did the us start using nuclear energy?
The USA started using nuclear energy in 1951
What is a limiting factor for using nuclear energy?
There are quite a few limiting factors for using nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is very expensive to produce for example.
Is cost a concern about nuclear energy?
No
How does deconnissioning affect the overall cost of electricity using nuclear fuels?
Decommissioning nuclear power plants can increase the overall cost of electricity using nuclear fuel, as it involves dismantling and disposing of the plant's components safely. The cost of decommissioning is factored into the lifecycle cost of nuclear power, which can affect the competitiveness of nuclear energy compared to other sources. Proper planning and setting aside funds for decommissioning can mitigate the impact on electricity costs.
What is the cost of nuclear energy compered to solar energy?
£100,000.00
What is the issue of using nuclear energy in spacecrafts and satellites?
Nuclear energy provides energy, not a push of motion.
How much does nuclear energy cost per joule?

Uses of nuclear energy in science?
nuclear energy is using the energy of science to be used as a weapon that has connections to science
What places are using nuclear energy resources?
Nuclear power plants
What are the costs of using nuclear energy?
There are no costs.
Ask us anythingWhich of the following is not a potential problem of using more nuclear energy?
Nuclear accidents resulting in radiation leaks can be a potential problem of using more nuclear energy.
