Why are Britain's nuclear power stations all built on west coast?
Britain's nuclear power stations were built on the west coast due to historical reasons, such as the availability of cooling water from the sea and proximity to population centers. This location also reduces the risk of radioactive contamination spreading over densely populated areas in case of an accident. However, newer nuclear power stations are being built inland to diversify the locations.
Why aren't there many nuclear energy on the west-coast?
A matter of primary importance is the fact that nuclear power plants need to be built to withstand the heaviest earthquakes likely to happen in the are in which they are sited. The west coast is home to the majority of earthquakes in the United States. Nuclear power plants also need large amounts of cooling water. Most nuclear power plants are inland, on fresh water, and the west coast does not have a large amount of inland water.
