New nuclear has 'lots of support' locally


New nuclear has ‘lots of support’ locally


Positive signs are coming from the region around The Sellafield nuclear plant. The article states that an executive from EDF Energy told MPs there was a “strong desire” for the jobs and other economic benefits new reactors could bring across England. He also says that safety should be the primer priority. EDF Energy’s director of planning and external affairs for future plants believes that his company should be as “open and transparent” as possible to keep the local civilians informed and positive.

Nuclear power plants have my support as well. It is one of the most efficient ways to generate electricity and also is sustainable. I agree that they should be open towards the community in order to keep the civilians informed. As long as the safety in nuclear power plants is maintained, it should not be any problem to generate electricity from nuclear resources. Human errors were made in both Fukishima and Chernobyl. These errors can and must be prevented. Another important thing to keep in mind is that the demand for electricity keeps growing. It will be hard to cope with this demand without nuclear power plants.
