New form of energy for CapetownCapetown is considered the largest city in South Africa, with a population of over 2,727,000. The current form of energy used in Cape Town is the gas turbine, which provides most of the city's electricity. Electricity consumption in Cape Town is very low compared to Western countries, for example there is only one television for almost ten people, energy consumption per capita per year is around 4,000 kWh, or 2,550 kWh less than the energy consumption per capita per year. year in Paris, France. Our plan is to build the most efficient, cheapest and most environmentally friendly way to produce energy for Cape Town's 1,575,000 residents, we have arrived at the solution: BUILD A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT. ? Photo by Loviisa, Nuclear power plant We explain our solution with the following facts: If we built other forms of power plants, we would need: 3 coal-fired power plants or 12 hydroelectric power plants or 7 gas turbine power plants or 173 solar power plants or 4,792 wind power plants. but we only need one nuclear power plant. power plant to provide enough electricity to 1,575,000 people. Environmental facts that concerned us: A nuclear power plant may seem nasty and dangerous, from a naturist point of view, but this is not a fact. A very good example of this is the amount of fuel a 900 MW nuclear power plant needs, which is about a truckload of uranium per year, but a coal-fired power plant of the same capacity needs about 140 tonnes of coal per hour , and it also pollutes the air with carbon dioxide that is released when the energy stored in coal is transformed into thermal energy. The carbon dioxide released during this process causes the greenhouse effect, which is the main cause of global temperature increase. A hydroelectric plant does not need fuel, but it pollutes the views of a beautiful current river, due to its size, sometimes entire villages have to be moved from the reservoir area, it also affects the upstream biosystem and downstream for quite a distance from the dam location. A wind power plant is a good solution but it needs space, even a turbine needs around 100x100 m of space to work properly, if a malfunction appears in the turbine it may fall or the blades may break and fly thousands of meters. The industry producing turbines pollutes the environment. Turbines also cause problems in TV and radio links..
