Nuclear power plants were made in the hope of providing a more efficient source of electricity than is obtained from coal powered plants.
They supply the electricity companies who supply your house or business
The payback time for nuclear power stations varies depending on factors such as construction costs, operating expenses, and maintenance costs. Generally, it can range from 10 to 20 years. However, nuclear power stations have a long operational lifespan, so they can generate electricity for many years once the initial investment is recouped.
Nuclear power stations produce nuclear waste. This waste can be radioactive and pose risks to human health and the environment if not properly managed and disposed of. Additionally, some emissions of carbon dioxide and other pollutants can be produced during the mining, milling, and enrichment of the fuel used in nuclear power plants.
No, nuclear power stations do not produce carbon dioxide (CO2) during the electricity generation process. Nuclear power generates electricity by splitting atoms in a process called nuclear fission, which does not involve the combustion of fossil fuels that produce CO2 emissions.

Sizewell nuclear power stations was created in 1995.
India has 19 nuclear power stations all together.
Nuclear Power is used in power stations to produce electricity

The Chashma Nuclear Power Complex and Karachi Nuclear Power Plant are in Pakistan.
Yes, nuclear power stations are generally more efficient than coal power stations, as they can generate more electricity with the same amount of fuel. Nuclear power produces less waste and greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal power.
