Nuclear power plants need a source of cooling. Water is the usual source of cooling, and lots of it, making a desert location unrealistic.
Well they are built to cool the HUGE amounts of heat generated by the Uranium fuel that usually exceeds 700 Degree Celcius. A nuclear powerplant is usually built near the ocean and the water is turned to stean that turns a turbine which generates energy.
In China, approximately two power stations are being built each week.
The first commercial nuclear power plant in the US was built in 1957 in Shippingport, Pennsylvania. The first commercial nuclear power plant in the world was built in 1956 in Calder Hill, UK.

Leo Szilard invented the nuclear reactor in 1933, but did not build it.Enrico Fermi built first nuclear reactor, CP-1 in 1942.Walter Zinn built the first nuclear power plant, EBR-1 in 1951.
If enough nuclear plants are built, yes
China has a number of nuclear plants. Which one do you mean?
In the 1970's
tis type of energy plant is expensive to built is. is it solar , nuclear or both
I don't know and I made the question
Large towers are built to provide water to keep equipment cool.
Yes, if more plants are built.
Nuclear energy affects our economy because of all the nuclear plants built from it. It harms us a lot!. The cost of these nuclear plants are around 2 billion dollars each, however many people do not realize this!! Camila More Info- camilaurbieta@yahoo.com
No look what happened to japan in the tsunami no i say no no no no
nuclear plants are near sea because harmful radiations can be disposed through underwater and there will not be much population whereas if it is built where there is a high population then it creates air pollution which is a cause of death.
No new nuclear plants have been built in the US in the past 20 years. The Watts Bar plant was licenced in 1996, but had been built much earlier. The last plant actually built was the River Bend plant in Louisiana, which was licenced in 1986.
They are being built again.
