In the wake of the Japanese tragedy, in which the system has once again proven that it works even against a tsunami 100 times more powerful than anything humanity has foreseen, is it still possible to defend nuclear power?
Yes it is. For some of us, there is no other choice.
Take Spain. In order to grow 1% its GNP, Spain needs to increase its energy consumption by over 1.2 %. this is the highest energy dependency in the OECD.
And an energy dependency from abroad of 50% is considered dangerous for national security. Over 70% it is considered unacceptable.
Spain's external energy dependence is over 80%!!!
So for this country it is a matter not only of national security but most probably, of national survival.
And nuclear energyi ismthe cheapest and cleanest national source of energy known to mankind. S there really is no other choice for Spain, is there?
