The Nuclear Power Required

Head of Nuclear Energy Supervisory Board (Bapeten) As Natio Lasman, saying the use of nuclear energy is necessary given the limited resources of fossil fuels.

"Over time, the Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) is increasingly needed. Japan before the earthquake in 2011, has 55 units of nuclear power plants, but since the tragedy of Fukushima everything off. But now, they do not hold as well because it has no natural resources to fuel, and finally starts up again two units of NPP, "As stated in the" media gathering "in Jakarta, Tuesday (12/2).

Turned off the unit number of nuclear reactors in Japan, further ace, impact on cost of production of goods the Japanese manufacturer.

He predicts that, if it is allowed continuously will cause Japanese products less competitive than products from Korea.



"Sometime in the 90's in Germany also occur rejection NPP. Cabinet but after two passes, finally they realize if they can not depend on fossil fuel sources anymore," he explained.

Bapeten estimates in 2030, there were as many as 420 additional nuclear power units in the world. Most of the nuclear power plant unit in Asia. It is seen from the official documents filed several countries such as Thailand, India, South Korea and China.

"Competition in the future is energy competition," he said.

Electricity generated from nuclear power, he explained, is cheaper because only 1 gram could generate as much electricity as one megawatt, equivalent to three tons of coal use.

Indonesian experts, he continued, was able to manage and supervise the plant. Even eight nuclear expert Indonesia is currently working as an inspector at the UN International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
