New form of energy for Capetown Capetown is considered the largest city in South Africa, with a population of over 2,727,000 inhabitants. The form of energy currently used in Cape Town is the gas turbine, which provides the majority of the city's electricity. Electricity consumption in Capetown is very low compared to Western countries, for example there is only one TV for almost ten people, the energy consumption per inhabitant per year is around 4000 kWh, which is 2550 kWh less than the energy consumption per inhabitant of a country. year in Paris, France. Our plan is to build the most effective, economical and 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. Image by Loviisa, Nuclear power plantWe explain our solution with the following facts:?If we built other forms of power plants we would need:3 coal power plants or12 hydroelectric power plants or7 gas turbine power plants or173 solar power plants or4792 wind power plants.but we only need of a nuclear power plant capable of providing enough electricity for 1,575,000 people. Environmental facts that worried us: a nuclear power plant may seem ugly and dangerous, from a naturistic point of view, but this is not a fact. A great example of this is the amount of fuel a 900 MW nuclear power plant needs, which equates to about a vanload of uranium per year, but a coal power plant with the same capacity needs about 140 tons of coal per year. 'now, and it also pollutes the air with carbon dioxide that is released when the energy stored in the coal is transformed into heat energy. The carbon dioxide released in the process causes the greenhouse effect, which is the main cause of rising global temperatures. A hydroelectric power station does not need fuel, but it pollutes the view of a beautiful flowing river, due to its size, sometimes entire villages have to be moved from the reservoir area, also it affects the biosystem both upstream and downstream for quite far from the place where the dam is located. A wind farm is a good solution but it needs space, even a single turbine needs around 100x100m of space to function properly, if a malfunction occurs in the turbine the blades can fall or break, and fly for thousands of metres. The industry that produces the turbines pollutes the environment. The turbines also cause some problems in TV and radio connections.
