Nuclear power plants don't release greenhouse gases. Coal power plants are cheaper to build.
Coal Power plants are cheaper to build.
because coal power plants use coal and nuclear power plants use nuclear energy to make electricity!!
coal uses fossil fuels and nuclear power plants doesn't
They use coal, oil, or natural gas as fuel instead of uranium
According to Wikipedia's sources, the power plant in Palatka, Seminole Generating Station, is a coal burning power plant. It only appears to be nuclear because of the cooling towers that are iconic of nuclear power plants but can be used coal fired power plants. I would have to imagine that the blast from a coal power plant, if exploded, would not travel the 40 or so miles to Ocala.

Coal fired plants.

The main advantage of nuclear power is that it does not depend on manufacturing carbon dioxide from carbon fuels, as gas, oil and coal power plants do, so nuclear power plants save millions of tons of CO2 being dumped into the atmosphere.
The difference is in the name; nuclear power plants produce electricity via a nuclear reaction producing head to turn a turbine, whereas coal fired power plants burn coal to produce the same efffect.
No. Nuclear power is more efficient because nuclear power is used as splitting atoms, making big bursts of energy, whereas coal power is simply burning coal. So nuclear power uses uranium fission to create energy (electricity), whereas coal power burns coal, emitting carbon. (Mind you, nuclear energy leaves behind radioactive waste - that is arguably easier to deal with for the time being. Not to mention that accidents at nuclear plants can have devastating environmental effects.
Nuclear, coal-fired, and hydroelectric power plants provide electricity.
Zero percent of nuclear power plants make energy by coal, US or otherwise.
Nuclear power plants were made in the hope of providing a more efficient source of electricity than is obtained from coal powered plants.
