▶ Your Answer : These days, energy systems are really important. There are many kinds of energy such as solar energy, wind energy, hydro energy, geothermal energy, etc. Among these sources of energy, nuclear energy technology systems give us cheaper and cheaner energy than any other energy sources. First, it is cheap. When building a nuclear power plant, there are many electronic devices, instruments, pumps, valves, power lines, etc. Since these materials are expensive, the cost of building a nuclear power plant is expensive. About 7 trillion Korean won should be invested to build only one power plant. Construting costs a lot of money, but after this, the cost of maintaing nuclear power plant is much cheaper than any other types of power system. This is because a nuclear power plant will produce energy for more than thirty years. During this time, pumps, valves, or fuel should be changed to maintain operation and these cost low. These are the reasons why maintaing the nuclear power is cheaper comparing to any other power systems such as coal power, solar power, or hydro power. Second, nuclear power is a clean energy. For instance, coil power, boiling water power produce a lot of carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide is really harmful to us and to the environment. It also distroy, the ozone layers. Many people are trying to decrease or minimize carbon dioxide emissions, but it is hard to do. They are researching systems that can minimize carbon emissions. Among these circumstances, nuclear power is welcomed, because carbon emissions are negligible. In conclusion, if we want clean and cheap energy, then the anser is nuclear power. This will provide us clean energy with the lowest price. |
