Question

Nuclear power plants produce less energy consuming more fuel is this statement true with regard to nuclear energy

Answer 1

yes it is true bcz A nuclear power plant or nuclear power station is a thermal power station in which the heat source is a nuclear reactor. As it is typical of thermal power stations, heat is used to generate steam that drives a steam turbineconnected to a generator that produces electricity. As of 23 April 2014, the IAEA report there are 450 nuclear power reactors in operation[1] operating in 31 countries.[2]

Nuclear plants are usually considered to be base load stations since fuel is a small part of the cost of production[3] and because they cannot be easily or quickly dispatched. Their operations and maintenance (O&M) and fuel costs are, along with hydropower stations, at the low end of the spectrum and make them suitable as base-load power suppliers. The cost of spent fuel management, however, is somewhat uncertain.
