@erkd1 And what you prefer they do. Pay $2 / kWh? I happen to work for a japanese company in the ibaraki prefecture (next to fukajima). Right now they are having rolling blackouts because their power can not keep up with demand. Energy is important, oil is running out, and renewable technology is not ready yet. So go ahead and sit in your ivory tower, but when you can't turn on your lights, or heat your house, you will be singing a different tune. Cheers.
@daobagua its the most expensive and most dangerous way to produce steam. Alternatives are available right now. Its also highly centralized (which cause rolling blackouts) and is inefficient in itself as power is lost in transmission and more susceptible to disaster be it mother nature or terrorism.
@erkd1 1. Average cost per KWh for a nuclear plant is less then wind, natural gas, and solar, slightly more then coal, but that is only because of the large regulation costs.
2. Centralized power does not create rolling blackouts, lack of supply to meet demand does. This is especially a problem if your supply does not react to demand (renewables).
3. inefficiencies of transmission are much smaller then the efficency lost used to charge batteries (80% efficient), Not that this matters.
@daobagua if you include all the costs, the mining costs, the storage costs for waste (that continues for generations) and security costs its easily the most expensive energy source. Of course its highly regulated because its highly dangerous. Just the cost of accidents alone, or whats called externalities in economics, is outrageously expensive. Japan for example is the most pro active country in the world re: earthquakes, there simply put is no such thing as completely safe nuclear power.
@erkd1 Never said their was anything as completely safe nuclear power.
The costs of mining are included in the fuel price. Though money has been put aside for long term storage, getting government approval for these types of projects is impossible. None the less, it will not be necessary in the next generation of nuclear reactors that burn used fuel to create highly radioactive waste (half life only a few hundred years, allowing for much more realistic storage).
Actually- planet Earth officially became ecology bankruptcy at 22 nd of august 2010 ! Officially, I was shocked when I saw that messege in news....So pity and miserably from all human kind!
there is a heck of a lot of shale oil and coal which is economically viable above around $70 a barrel.
if the whole world used uranium instead of oil then all known uranium reserves would last only 4 years.
nuclear is crap, the only reason it is used is for weapons, it produces materials for bombs. that is how we know Iran is making bombs.
Solar, tide wind, geothermal however.. and in the future fusion, could easily supply our energy needs, capitalist profit myopia traps us into stagnation.
@marsCubed The collapse has already begun, transition to other sources of energy should have begun decades ago... it's too late now. Prepare yourself.
The party's over and there's no way out ... when the planetary peal oil spike goes into its waning years, it will mean the end of The Industrial Era, unless if we invest into alternate energy sources ... NOW ...
Nuclear Power is the way.
Cheers.

Yep, you want power you need Nuclear.

Little research is directed on establishing abiogenic petroleum or methane. I wonder why?
