Why Nuclear Power Plant Jobs are Popular these Days
Nuclear energy is a low carbon source of energy contrary to energy produced from fossil fuel, namely oil and gas. Combined with renewable energies, nuclear energy can help fill the gap until an entirely new set of energy technologies and innovations are invented and put into place. Nuclear energy is the only non intermittent low carbon source of energy the world has available now except for hydro energy. For developed countries, energy produced by nuclear power plants represents a chance to lower their emissions and respect their commitments. For developing countries, nuclear energy represents the chance to grow their local economy in a sustainable way and to lower creation of and exposition to green house gases, notably in domestic settings. Nuclear jobs are part of the effort to fight against global warming.
Nuclear Life-Cycle
A nuclear project – the development of a nuclear power plant from the planning stages to the end of its life – typically spans over 100 years, from designing to licensing, building and operating, to life extension, refurbishments and waste management. These long-cycle projects are complex and continuously come up with the most exciting challenges, technological but also legal and financial. All types of nuclear jobs exist and are constantly developed to fit the challenges of nuclear power plants ‘construction, operation, life extension and waste management.
