Re: The Sun, The Wind and Nuclear Power?
You should also take into account the radioactive emissons and ashes
generated in a coal burning power plant.
I read Po 210 emissions are estimated on 10 Bq/g in combustion dust. ->
0.0001 man.Sv/MW Year?
Does anyone have more information about the ra emissions from coal plants
and nuclear plants?
