Of the thirty countries that operate nuclear power plants, only France uses them as its primary source of electricity, although many of them have a significant nuclear power generation capacity.[citation needed] According to the nuclear power advocacy association World Nuclear Association, over 45 countries are giving “serious consideration” to introducing a nuclear power capability. Front runners, they say, are Iran, UAE, Turkey, Vietnam, Belarus and Jordan.[7]

Can we ask ourselves why is Jordan in the nuclear race while one solar chimney can support its needs for a decade to come?
===============================================

With respect; that is meaningless. Likewise, I am a little baffled by the term ‘solar chimney’ but I will say that we have under-invested in solar power. That said, it is NOT a solution in itself for growing demand.

To illustrate; CPV can only operate on low gridworks (i.e. on a small scale) as opposed to mass production. Even then CPV only offers a 30-35% capacity factor (alas a weighted average) as it doesn’t coincide with ‘peak loads’ thus UNLESS you introduce TOD (Time Of Day) pricing (which seems to be effective in Japanese studies) you have no hope of ‘load-shifting’ (& we all know, Jordanians oppose price hikes).

In practical factors 1000 MW of CPV ONLY provides 2.63 TwH of electricity, or 23% of existing consumption (2010) which is NOT profitable; but to be fair would save about 15,000 barrels per day (our consumption is 105,000 bpd).

On the other hand, CSP offers near 99% power, 8.6 TwH, however, at a very high cost:

Finally, the study acknowledged how technology for CSP was improving and how this would result in a drastic price decrease by 2050. It predicted a drop from the current range of €0.23–0.15/kwh to €0.14–0.10/kwh.[23]
————————————-

In short; even at the most optimistic figure, we are talking about
$0.195 [0.138 JD] for the promising CSP. Again, this is slightly higher than oil (even w/subsidies) at 17-18 cents per kWh.

To give you an example, a barrel of fuel oil offers 1900 kW or so, but with 33% thermal efficiency; even at $100 per barrel it is $0.16 [0.113 JD] per kWh!!!!!!!!

Good Day.

I will only say these numbers and percentages mean little-to-nothing because relevant variables have been ommited (on purpose) such as factor capacity or even transmission losses. They even lack clarity (for example Iceland has volcanic steam to supply 100% of their needs)hence these numbers lack aggregates or even discussion.

To give you an example of each country:

France
Bulgaria
Poland
Czech Republic
Netherlands
India
Russia
China
S.Korea
United Kingdom
UAE

Just to correct some errors; Sweden has decided that it will NOT phase-out nuclear power, despite 2010 being the deadline for such a phase-out. It is looking into new reactors. On the other hand, Spain is considering purchasing new units. The rest are anti-nuclear by referendum; or rely heavily on French power (which earns them handsome profits).

Thus, Jordan COULD be a nation that exports electricity to less controversial nations of the world (Syria or Iraq) and assists others such as KSA or Lebanon; both of whom have shortages. Indeed, our ability to absorb a Research Reactor, offer nuclear engineering courses and even (dare I say) operate reactors of the GCC and our friends & neighbours reveals our strong position.

Yet the anti-nuclear people are trying to turn it into a disposition. Can we really sit by while the GCC’s existing advantages (oil, gas and soon nuclear power -with Jordanian engineers-) multiplies, while renewables fail to supply our needs? As it is, even 1000 MW of renewable power would only supply 28% of our electricity requirements. Respectable; but the cost would be greater than oil or gas because we lack CO2 emission tax/credit.

For example, a 1100 MW reactor can supply upwards of 1200 – 1600 mcm of water (Jordan’s demand is around 1650 mcm of water, of which only 900 mcm is supplied; half from non-renewable sources) thus, Unit 1 would resolve water issues, and Unit 2 onwards would be dedicated to electricity. CSP technology is NOT EVEN CLOSE towards matching these, or the operating costs.

I may also add that many anti-nuclear critics (and without wishing to seem callous) are at the latter end of their lives. I am not going endure darkness over the graves of men and women who had no vision for our future.

Returning to the issue at hand; the people who oppose nuclear power are largely like those people who assert that men never landed on the moon; despite all the evidence. Indeed, states such as Germany make decisions base

The shortcomings of nuclear power (not failures) are to be expected; indeed solar power has shortcomings, but the ‘failure’ is a relative term. All types of energy are complimentary; not substitutes for each other. As such, I support the nuclear programme as much as I support solar, wind and even (dare I say) gas or oil-fired facilities. I oppose shale oil on the principle that the technology is not mature enough to resolve the environmental costs.

Yet w/respect to Drs Ayoub and Burgan; I see no alternative to the nuclear programme; from what we are seeing, more European nations are turning to nuclear such United Kingdom, France, Bulgaria, Poland, Czech Republic, Netherlands and Sweden in fact, the Swedes were supposed to phase out nuclear power by 2010. They planning new systems. On top of that Russia, China, S.Korea and India are adding to their fleets (in fact, S.Korea is to supply the UAE w/14 systems); while France has over-capacity until 2030; selling extra to Germany would be a welcome relief from this surplus.

Add to this, third rate technologies (early Generation II BWR especially) cannot be compared to Jordan’s reactors, all in the Generation III bracket; and in one bidder’s case, a Generation III+ design that is 2nd-to-none.
