Nuclear Energy is one of the KEYS in every industrialized country, don't expect further developments if their is no cheap, competitive and reliable source of power. We may have the cheap and talented labors, but we have a ****ed-up source of power (both supply and cost) developers will simply avoid us...............congrats to us all...we are decades behind when it comes to development....give all this credits to previous administrations who cannot act and foresee developments 20 or 30 years further.

[Scott Bernard]

Assuming walay obstruction sa UN and Superpower countries... then fully supported ta sa technical facilities with less or mitigated corruption, nuclear power is a good source of power for our country.

It needs responsibility and stewardship if matukoran gani ta ug ingon ani nga planta.

i am against nuclear plants. too costly. our country is poor for this project plus our country belongs to the ring of fire.

i would prefer geothermal plants. we have plenty of those. renewable pa. no toxic waste.

[<SMILE>]

mamalit lang gihapon ta ug uranium sa laing nasud, maorag wala man ta ana, unya ang atong nuclear waste unsaon nato pag-dispose, mag-lisud pa man gani ta anang conventional garbage.
We need sustainable power sources nga safe unya mostly domestic ra ang resources nga kinahanglanon, mas maayo pa upgrade na lang ang mga hydroelectric power plants, like in New Zealand from the mountainous water sources they made multi-stages of hydroelectric plants until the flow/energy of water is exhausted into the sea, puwede man tingale ang Polangi sa Bukidnon ana and other hydroelectric dams. Also as mentioned above we could also upgrade our geothermal plants.

It is a good source of power para sa ato country.
dapat 4 - 5 ka power plant unta.
2 sa Luzon, 1 sa Visayas, 2 sa Mindanao.
Barato sab dapat, ang kuryente nato isa sa mga rason ngano wala kau foreign investors or multi national companies diri sa ato nasud.

Jeremy Rifkin on Nuclear Energy

1. Nuclear would have to be 20% to have the minimum minimum impact on climate change. That means we’d have to replace the existing 400 nuclear plants and build 1600 additional plants. Three nuclear plants would have to be built every 30 days for 40 years to get to 20% and by that time climate change would have pretty much run its course with us...
2. We still don’t know how to recycle the nuclear waste and we’re seventy years in. Now, we have good engineers in the US. We spent 18 years & $8 billion building an underground vault in Yucca Mountain to store the wastes for 10,000 years. We can’t use it. We can’t even store them...
3. We run into uranium deficits, according to the Department of Atomic Energy Commission, you may know this, between 2025 and 2035 for just the existing 400 plants. So, that means the price goes up.
4. We could do what the French generation of new plants are doing and recycle the uranium to plutonium. But then we have plutonium all over the world in an age of uncertainty and terrorism.
5. We don’t have the water.
6. Nuclear power is centralized power, like fossil fuels. It doesn’t fit a new generation that’s moving with the kind of technologies that are distributed, collaborative, and laterally scaled. It’s an old technology.

ipadayon unta nato ang renewable and sustainable energy. nuclear won't be practical due to our geological location, segmented islands, and our stupid politics and resource monopoly.

kita ra ba ang pinakalooy nga nasod kay sige bisita ang bagyo ug linog naa pay KSP nga el nino. the country is not prepped, much more, maintain ug nuclear setup. galisod naman gani ang japan nga 1st world, kita pa kaha?

mas maayo unta ipadayon nato ang solar farms, the technology is improving and prices are going down.
one of the reasons why ato unta protectahan ang SCS kay pwede nato himoon offshore/floating farms.

another feasible option is using underwater wave buoys . ato ni ibutang facing the pacific kay kusog ang tide unya safe ni during typhoons.so pwede ni nato cia backup incase dli kasustenar ang solar ug nadisable ang mga water filtering plants nato.

these energy generating buoys x desalination plants is currently being used by australia. payter unta kung maharness ni nato. safe for the aquatic environment

alternative renewable and sustainable energy will be very hard sa atong nasud tungod kay kaning mga oil cartels are very good at giving politicians campaign funds para maprotektahan ilang business interest. government has very little or no control of it.
