核能發電是相當安全、環保、經濟的。核能正在逐步的代替其它的各種能源。1995年統計，核電已占全世界發電量的23.16%。核電站的燃料費比火電站的要低得多。對100萬千瓦壓水堆核電站，每年需要補充40噸燃料，其中只消耗1.5噸鈾－235，其余的尚可收回。所以燃料運輸是微不足道的。而對一座100萬千瓦燒煤的發電廠，每年致少消耗 噸標準煤，平均每天要有艘萬噸輪，或三列40節車廂的火車運煤到發電廠。運輸負擔之沉重是可想而知的。核電站是能源隊列中的巨人。核電站吃食甚少，但力大無比。一座100萬千瓦級壓水堆核電站，一年只需 30～40噸左右低濃鈾核燃料。而同樣規模的煤電站，一年要供應它212～350萬噸煤炭。

Nuclear power is very safe, environmental friendly, and economic。 Nuclear power gradually replaces other power sources。 According to statistics in 1995, nuclear power is accounted for 23。16% of world electricity input。 The fuel costs in a nuclear power plant are much cheaper than any conventional coal power plant。 For every 1 million watts nuclear power plant, it requires 40 tons of fuel replenishments, which only consumes 1。5 tons of uranium 235 and the rest can be recycled。 Therefore, the cost on fuel transportation is not worth of mentioning in this particular case。 However, for 1 million watts coal power plant, it consumes at least 2。12 million tons of coal; equivalent to a daily average of 10,000-ton ship or three rows trains with 40 compartments each row in terms of transportation costs, which is obvious to tell that transportations have been very costly。 Nuclear power plant is a giant of the power sources since it consumes less fuel but input more power。 For example, a 1 million watts nuclear power plant, it requires about 30 to 40 tons of the low thick uranium transforms, but the similar capacity, a coal power plant will need 2。12 to 3。5 million tons of coal supply。 。
