Why do you need nuclear power plants?
You have to have power plants because without them we would not have enough power =)
How is nuclear energy used to produce electricity?
Nuclear energy, or nuclear power, uses exothermic nuclear processes to produce electricity. Nuclear power plants provide around 10% of the world's electricity.
How do nuclear power plants contribute to thermal pollution?
Nuclear power plants do not cause thermal polution.
What is the source of energy in nuclear power plants?
The source of energy in almost all nuclear power plants is fission or the splitting of the atom. There are a few experimental fusion power plants, (or the joining of the atoms), but, there are few of them, since the energy needed to produce fusion is extremly high, and only last a few seconds. Around 99.99% of nuclear power plants are fission power plants.
Is wave power expensive?
yesh ih is cheap!!
How has society influenced the development of genetic engineering over the last 20 years?
Nuclear power plants provide cheap electricity to power people's homes.
Are nuclear power plants cheap?
They are expensive to build but relatively cheap to run because the fuel costs are lower.
How are geothermal power plants currently used?
Geothermal power plants are used to provide power to the power distribution grid, just like other traditional power plants. Since geothermal power plants are able to run around the clock, they are used to provide baseline power, unlike many other renewable energy sources such as solar or wind.

What are the merits of fossil fuels?
Cheap, reliable, don't need to change current power plants
Why are hydro electric generating stations important?
Because hydroelectric plants are important because they provide a low poultion and cheap energy. The plants are expensive to build.
What are some good thing about nulear power plants?
POne good thing is that they provide a decent amount of power
What are the Benefits of a nuclear power plants?
Clean, cheap energy that will never run out produced in a relatively small power plant. It's a no-brainer.
