Answer:
The advantages of nuclear energy are as follows :
- Nuclear energy reduces the amount of energy generated from fossil fuels (coal and oil) and therefore, reduces the use of fossil fuels and lowers Greenhouse Gas emissions.
- It saves on raw materials but also in transport, handling and extraction of nuclear fuel. The cost of nuclear fuel (overall uranium) is 20% of the cost of energy generated.
- The production of electric energy is continuous. A nuclear power plant generates electricity for almost 90% of annual time. It reduces the price volatility of other fuels such as petrol.
