Nuclear Energy Could install in TVHS for better and cleaner energy Could install in TVHS for better and cleaner energy Will also help economy with workers for the nuclear plant Will also help economy with workers for the nuclear plant Is used to make heat and as a result steam is produced Is used to make heat and as a result steam is produced Is environmentally friendly Is environmentally friendly

The seven major components 1.Fuel component- were the fuel is made 2. 2.Moderator component-keeps neutrons in control 3.Reflector component-keeps neutrons in a certain place 4.Coolant component-makes heat 5.Control rods component-converts the energy into electrical energy 6.Shielding component-keeps radiation from leaving the reactor 7.Vessel component-the housing were the nuclear fuel is done

Nuclear power plant parts

Props: Cons: 1.cheaper 1.can explode 2.Eviromental friendly 2.can leak dangerous radiation 3.stable 3.needs open space

Our school now OUR SCHOOL USES A LOT OF ENERGY TVHS HAS EMPTY SPACE FOR THE LITTLE POWER PLANT IT WOULD HELP THE SCHOOL BUGET IF THEY HAD THEIR OWN ENERGY SOURCE

New TVHS!! A new power plant for our school can keep the major light on without a lot of money being spent We have empty space for this little power plant so we can save energy A little power plant will look something like this but in the desert TVHS will have new source of energy and is also environmental friendly
