Net Energy is the one that counts

Difference between the amount of energy in the source and the amount of energy expended to get that energy source ready to use.

What is Nuclear Waste?

• Low level • Gives off small

amounts of radiation• 100 – 500 years to

decay

• High level• Spent fuel rods• Any material that has

come into contact with the core of the reactor – coolant, tools, old reactor parts, etc.

• 10,000 - ? to decay
