16 Reasons why Nuclear Generation is not the Answer!

Why is an Acoustic Fish Deterrent necessary at Hinkley Point C?

The feasibility of powering the UK with 100% renewables One of the main claims used in recent years to justify building new nuclear power stations is that they are the only low carbon power source that can supply reliable, always on, baseload electricity – unlike variable renewables such as wind and solar. But baseload is not helpful in balancing a variable energy supply – it simply leads to further overproduction of energy at times when renewables are able to meet demand on their own. What’s required is a flexible supply of electricity which can be turned on and off quickly to fill the troughs when renewables aren’t able to meet demand.

Towards 100% Renewables: Researchers from Stanford University in California have provided roadmaps for 145 countries to provide 100% of their energy requirements using wind, water and solar energy, efficiency and storage, ideally by 2035, but by no later than 2050. The compelling feature of these 100% renewable energy scenarios is that they require less energy, cost less, and create more jobs than business as usual scenarios.

Nuclear is on the front-line of climate change – and not in a good way. As knowledge of climate sensitivity and polar ice melt-rate evolves, it’s become clear that sea-level rise is significantly faster than previously thought
