Nuclear energy is a form of energy generated from nuclear fission or nuclear fusion of atoms. Advantages: 1. No emission of gases: Nuclear power plants allow for electricity generation without emitting greenhouse gases. In this sense, it does not contribute to global warming as it is an alternative to fossil fuels. The smoke coming out of the chimneys is water vapor. 2. High energy yield with little fuel: Large amounts of energy are obtained with a small amount of fuel. This implies two advantages: • Savings in raw materials. • Savings in transportation, extraction, and handling of uranium. The cost of uranium accounts for 20% of the cost of generated energy. 3. Predictable: Electricity production is continuous. A nuclear power plant generates electricity for almost 90% of the hours in a year. That is, it does not depend on natural aspects. This continuity favors electrical planning. Cost-wise, it is also predictable. Uranium does not suffer from the price volatility that other fu...
