Fukushima and The Future of Nuclear Power

On March 11, 2011, the main island of Japan was a sudden and severe vibration of the earth, with magnitude 0 grade. The earthquake caused severe damage, and the tsunami that occurred after the earthquake caused the explosion of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. This causes the radioactive material to diffuse into the surrounding environment. After this incident people are increasingly worried about whether nuclear power is a dangerous power supply. Several European countries such as Switzerland, Germany, Italy responded to the accident ("IRRS Follow-up Germany 2011", 2011).

This event, called "melting", is the cause of the most famous nuclear disaster in Sanna, Chernobyl, and more recently on the island of Fukushima. Future nuclear power plants hope to avoid this incident through promising technologies such as molten salt furnaces, and UC Berkeley is the leader in this field. However, nuclear fission will still create risks like waste nuclear fuel that triangle energy never faces its fusion energy technology. Of course, large motors always have their own risk factors, but these factors can be mitigated by following appropriate government agencies and safety policies.

The nuclear reactor at Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant causes emission of uncontrolled radiation to the environment. Due to the nuclear disaster of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, many people began to question the rationality of nuclear safety and the possibility of reliable government information. Despite the risks and risks, Japan has undergone nuclear attacks in the past and has become highly "nuclear" country. Nuclear power accepted by Japan

The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant disputes about the importance of the accident and its impact on the future of nuclear power. Due to the crisis in Fukushima, nuclear power producers examined the safety of nuclear fleets and reconsidered the speed and scale of planned nuclear expansion. However, Bill Johnson, Chairman and CEO of Progress Energy, said that "there is a more convincing case that more use of nuclear energy is an important part of a balanced energy strategy today" Mentioned. In 2011, "Economist" believed that nuclear power generation was "dangerous, unpopular, expensive, dangerous", "can be replaced relatively easily, can abandon". "Geoffrey Sachs, director of the Earth Institute, argued against and objected to the need to expand nuclear power to cope with climate change, and investment banks also criticized the nuclear problem shortly after the accident.

It has been nearly six years since Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station caused the meltdown of three nuclear reactors due to power loss due to the tsunami. In late January 2017, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the owner of the site, investigated the interior of Reactor 2 which showed a very high level of radiation using the camera arm of the telescope. This is the first careful examination in the reactor pressure vessel. A1: Since March 2011, all six nuclear reactors at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant are stopped and a final decommissioning measure is awaited. Unlike the furnaces 1, 2 and 3 in which the core was melted due to the absence of cooling water, nuclear reactors 4, 5 and 6 were not destroyed by the accident. High level radiation on site requires great precautions to clean up buildings and surrounding land by workers
