Opinion: High-density nuclear power has international acceptance
NUCLEAR power has an energy density about two million times higher than that of any chemical and also uses about 3.4 square kilometres of land per 1000 megawatts generated (average based on 54 USA sites). For comparison, the Macarthur wind farm (pictured), one of the largest in the southern hemisphere, covers 55 square kilometres and has an installed capacity of 420 megawatts. Photo: MARK RABICH.
