At What Cost !
by silver_111 on Aug 02, 2008 11:35 AM   Permalink | Hide replies


1. The cost of the produced electicity and maintenance of the plant is very high.

2. The disposal of Nuclear waste is a big big problem, that we have not considered. The half life of Uranium-236, the Nuclear Fuel is 5,00,000 years, it will stay redioactive till then.

2. The transportation of Nuclear material across the counrty is very risky especially in terrorists infected country like India.

Will the self certified experts like Rahul Gandhi answer any of these issues ?

Cost is actually lower than gas/oil based plant.
I can go on about it but so that you see what is propaganda material, please answer following:

1. Do you have any idea of what is the cost of electricity produced versus other sources? Please post.

2. This is an open item in the whole world. What do other countries do? Why should we worry about it more than others?

3. This is just some hypothesis. Wouldn't India take precautions for this?
