Can we keep the lights on Without nuclear power?

 A standout feature of nuclear power is its ability to provide stable, continuous energy. The plants operate continuously, unlike coal fired stations which require consistent deliveries of fuel. Solar and wind energy plants  depend on weather conditions. Nuclear power plants allowed UK prime minister Margaret thatcher to keep the lights on during the infamous 1984/5 miners strike. Nuclear provides consistent and reliable energy output around the clock. There have been many developments over the years since The UK’s Nuclear Power Group was formed in 1955. Rolls Royce, Westinghouse and others have proven Small Modular Reactors as low-cost clean energy solutions that use commercially available technology to deliver factory built nuclear power plants anywhere. Further developments are already underway, including nuclear fusion plants which are expected to be far more efficient.
