Question 3 A nuclear power plant (NPP) make used of its nuclear power to generate electricity. The expression “nuclear power” is defined as a controlled release of energy by nuclear fission or nuclear fusion reactions (Nuclear Power‚ 2004‚ p. 2809). The world’s first exposure to nuclear power came with the detonation of two atomic bombs over the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 by the army of the United State of America (Nuclear Power‚ 2004‚ p. 2809). At that time‚ scientists believed

supplies of oil and natural gas are expected to run out in the near future. This has cause a growth in nuclear power. Through out this report one will also learn the disadvantages and advantages to coal burning power plant and how they operate. Coal has played a major role in electricity production ever since the first power plants were built in the world in the 1880’s. The earliest power plant used hand feed wood or coal to heat boiler and produce steam. This steam was used in reciprocation steam engines

Merchant Opportunities for power plants in India Abstract The concept was merchant power plant was introduced in India in 2003. With an existing huge demand supply gap of electricity in India‚ MPPs are considered to be panacea in the long run. Though the government has targeted capacity addition of 88‚000 MW in the 12th FYP it seems faltering purely basis the trend of delays observed in project commissioning and the after effects of economic slowdown hitting the power generation sector in India

Disadvantages of Nuclear Power http://wanttoknowit.com/disadvantages-of-nuclear-power/ The Basics of Nuclear Power Nuclear power is generated from a metal called uranium. Uranium is mined in places such as Australia‚ Argentina‚ Canada‚ Brazil‚ China‚ France and many other countries. The uranium is used to create controlled nuclear reactions called nuclear fission. Nuclear fission gives off a tremendous amount of heat which is used to heat water to create steam. This steam turns turbines which
