That's like asking how many cars can be powered by 1 gallon of gas ... it's going to

depend on how long you want to keep it up. One house can be powered for a very

long time, and a million houses can also be powered but not for so long.

There are also plants that use plutonium.Research and development is being done on nuclear plants using thorium as fuel.Surf on over to the Wikipedia articles to mine more data.

How much is the energy output of one uranium pellet?

There are many types of uranium pellets depending on the nuclear reactor type and the used uranium enrichment (or uranium-235 content). It may be more illustrative to say that: 1 gram of uranium-235 when undergoes fission in a nuclear reactor gives energy roughly equivalent to burning 3 tonnes of coal or 2 tonnes of oil.


Where does all the money for nuclear come from?

Nuclear power plants are built under commercial arrangements-the power company will borrow capital from banks and repay interest from the sales of electricity. The snag might be after the end of life-who is going to pay for the decommissioning? In the UK costs are being borne by government and I guess this also applies in the US. Other costs are of course borne by the military out of taxation.

How much does uranium 237 cost per gram in inr?

Well, based on recent studies... In terms of power production, 1 kilogram of uranium-235 is equivalent to 2.7 million kilograms of coal. With those numbers in mind, I would expect 1 gram of uranium-237 to cost somewhere between $300-$600 million. There are many other factors involved but I do know that I need to be in the business of selling uranium because unemployment isn't paying my bills.
