No/little pollution. Limited utilisation due to technology & cost - 3Recyclable Fuel can be used again to generate powerNuclear is the only fuel that can be re-used
Environmental concerns & hazards. Nuclear reprocessing can make uranium waste reusable - 4Non-renewable resources which have formed the basis of our energy provision for centuries are sometimes known as stock resourcesRenewable resources which do not need regeneration are often termed flow resources. This is because they provide almost continuous flows of energy
- 5Recyclable means using a source which can be used time and time again. Nuclear falls into the category, and so therefore can be viewed as being 'sustainableE.g. Pumped storage - HEP, water let through to lower reservoir in peak times (10-15 minutes). Pump back to top a night
Biofuels - 6Biofuels & biomass are renewable resources that are not considered a flow resourceE.g. Pumped storage, solar, nuclear, geothermal, tidal & heat energy from waste
