Decommissioning is handled by the NDA (Nuclear Decommissioning Authority), website http://www.nda.gov.uk/. The financial report for 2006/7 and 2007/8 is available from the website. It is naturally a very long report with lots of pretty pictures, but pages 28/29 will probably be of most interest. It says that for 2007/8 £1,646 million was received from the taxpayer, with commercial income of £1,458 million. Nuclear liabilities are listed at £44,095 million and growing compared to the previous year, so there is a long way to go.
I will add something for development - this has recently changed
What else can I help you with?
How many MW does a nuclear plant produce?
The power output of a nuclear power plant can vary, but on average, a typical nuclear power plant produces around 1,000 megawatts (MW) of electricity. This can vary depending on the size and design of the plant.
How much power does one nuclear power plant give off?
The power output of a nuclear power plant can vary, but on average, a typical nuclear power plant can produce around 1,000 megawatts of electricity. This is enough to power roughly 1 million homes.
What are nuclear power cons?
Some common cons of nuclear power include the risk of accidents leading to radioactive leaks, the long-term storage and disposal of radioactive waste, and concerns about nuclear proliferation and the potential for nuclear weapons development. Additionally, nuclear power plants can be expensive to build and decommission.
Does the Chernobyl Power Plant still run?
No, the Chernobyl Power Plant is no longer operational. The plant suffered a catastrophic nuclear accident in 1986, resulting in significant contamination and rendering it inoperable. Efforts are being made to safely decommission the plant.
How many average wind turbines are needed to replace 1 average nuclear power plant?
It depends on the specific capacity of the wind turbines and the nuclear power plant in question. On average, it takes about 250-300 wind turbines with a capacity of 2-3 MW each to replace the output of a typical 1 GW nuclear power plant.

How tall is the average nuclear power plant?
it is 59 foot

Existing nuclear power plant?
what is the existing of nuclear power plant?
What is the positive of nuclear power plant?
what is negative of the nuclear power plant
How much does it cost to decommission geothermal power?
The cost to decommission a geothermal power plant can vary depending on factors such as the size of the plant, its location, and the specific decommissioning requirements set by regulatory bodies. Typically, decommissioning costs can range from several million dollars to tens of millions of dollars.

Where is the Nuclear Fission Power plant in Alaska?
There is no nuclear power plant in Alaska.
What kind of fallout will we see from a nuclear power plant?
Nuclear Fallout comes from a nuclear power plant.
What are problems faced by the use of nuclear fission?
The use of Nuclear Fission has many drawbacks. 1) is the chance of a Nuclear Meltdown which can leak a lot of radiation, which can cause horrible illnesses such as cancer. 2) It costs a lot of money to decommission a nuclear power plant. 3) The waste nuclear fission creates can be unstable if not kept at a cool temp. I hope this helped
