1980 Swedish nuclear power referendum

A non-binding referendum on nuclear power was held in Sweden on 23 March 1980. [1] Three proposals were put to voters: Nuclear power would be phased out over a period that would not impact too severely on employment and welfare. The twelve nuclear power stations operating or under construction would continue to be used until renewable sources became available, in order to reduce dependence on oil. There would also be no further expansion of nuclear power and the order in which the existing nuclear power stations would close down would be dependent on security.

"Atomic power" redirects here. For the film, see Atomic Power (film). The 1200 MWe Leibstadt Nuclear Power Plant in Switzerland. The boiling water reactor (BWR), located inside the dome capped cylindrical structure, is dwarfed in size by its cooling tower. The station produces a yearly average of 25 million kilowatt-hours per day, sufficient to power a city the size of Boston. [1] The Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, the largest in the United States with 3 pressurized water reactors (PWRs), is situated in the Arizona desert. It uses sewage from cities as its cooling water in 9 squat mechanical draft cooling towers. [2] [3] Its total spent fuel inventory, produced since 1986, is contained in dry cask storage cylinders located between the artificial body of water and the electrical switchyard. U.S. nuclear powered ships: (top to bottom) cruisers USS  Bainbridge , USS  Long Beach , and USS  Enterprise , the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. Picture
