My idea for nuclear powe plant

By Wataru Ito

I was belonged the group representing Energy Co, so I will write my opinion for building a power plant.

My idea is building nuclear power plant. The merit of nuclear power is “we can provide cheaper electricity” and “it gives people job”. Of course there are some risks as explosion trouble. I had idea for indemnity for residence; “build plant far from residence area” and “protect noxious industrial wastes with thick concrete”.

There are some important comment from the group representing residents and consumers. Their concerns are “the cost for building and transmitting electricity from far plant become enormous” and “the fear for safety”.
Their care is natural, of course the running cost becomes huge. And I know there are still some risks for nuclear energy and no one prefer to live nearby power plant. So I would like to introduce my opinion for these risks.

First, if we build nuclear power plant, we can get enormous electricity. Selling the electricity, it makes large profit for us. And thinking the production in long –term, we can expect the benefit exceed the cost. Moreover, there are ripple effects for the local society, for example, employment is effect for people. And when company becomes rich, the city official gets enough tax. The raising tax revenue can be used for social welfare, so nuclear power plant brings us many shapes of merit.

Second, the profit can be used for compensation in case troubles harm residents. I’m sorry to say, I cannot take away risks completely. But we can prepare for supposed accidents. In addition, the technology of nuclear power is incomplete, but we can expect technological innovation for the next decades.

It is required that shift the energy source. We insist it is appropriate way and stage now.
