Answer:
the number of houses ≈ 8.25 million houses
Explanation:
Given that:
A typical house in the United States uses about 10,900 kWh,
1 TWh (terawatt-hour) =1×10^6 GWh (gigawatt-hour) =1×10^9kWh (kilowatt-hour)
The three Gorges Dam in China produces about 90TWh of electricity each year. If it was to to be built in the United states, the number of houses such a plant would be able to provide the electricity for in a year is given as:
Number of houses = Amount of electricity produced in a year / amount of electricity used by each house.
Number of houses = 90 TWh / 10,900 kWh = 90 × 10⁹ kWh / 10,900 kWh = 8256881
Therefore the number of houses ≈ 8.25 million houses
Answer:
I would say nuclear and/or other renewable sources such as hydro, solar, turbine.
Explanation:
Nuclear is the cleanest source of energy out there, and is one of the more efficient ways of energy. However, nuclear energy is also the riskiest. Events such as Chernobyl are examples of the dangers of nuclear power plants. The radioactive effects of a nuclear power plant detonating is long term and causes quite a bit of damage ecologically, biologically, and economically.
If it werent for the risk factor nuclear would be the best way of energy by far.
