Nuclear energy as environmentally friendly energy and international politics

Abstract

The growth of the world's human population demands greater energy fulfillment and the main energy source that has been used so far is fossil fuels. Nuclear energy produced in a nuclear reactor is used as a competitive contributor with other sources of electrical energy such as coal, oil, gas, water, and others. So that the contribution of energy from various aspects becomes something that must be taken as a mutually beneficial strategic partner in meeting future energy needs that are economical and environmentally friendly at both national and international levels. The result of this research is energy is a primary need in modern human life. Almost all aspects of life require energy as its prime mover. In the beginning, people used fossil energy to fulfill their needs. The limited amount of fossil energy on earth has resulted in many people competing to create renewable energy with the characteristics of low cost, high stability, and high efficiency. Energy savings are urgent to be done so that the nation can survive in the midst of a crisis like this. In addition, this is also a warning that excessive dependence on fossil energy sources or primary energy such as oil, coal and natural gas is not a good option. Modern energy sources include solar energy, nuclear energy, wind energy, hydro energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy, hydrogen fuel cell energy, and biofuel energy. So that in the development of nuclear energy, treaty rules are made and there is international law in it. This is done so that every country in developing its nuclear energy still maintains international peace and security.

Sustainable Energy Safety Management Utilizing an Industry-Relative Assessment of Enterprise Equipment Technical Condition

“…The authors proposed a comprehensive diagnosis of power equipment and forecasting of the service life based on a study of the stress-strain state of elements and calculation of the residual life by analyzing the degree of metal degradation. Based on the proposed methodology for determining the number of permissible load cycles under different operating conditions, the authors of [4,17,20] proposed a model for managing the safety of nuclear power units using international regulatory and legislative requirements, as described in [18,[23][24][25], and an algorithm for predicting further operations within the design and beyond the design life.…”

Approaches to Sustainable Energy Management in Ensuring Safety of Power Equipment Operation

“…From the perspective of nuclear reactor safety, research and accident risk assessments demonstrate that adverse events occur at a low rate compared to the overall estimated risk to human life in general. To reduce risks and elevate the safety level of power plant equipment, continuous efforts are required to enhance safety systems, safety management, and human resources [7,8].…”

“…Thus, nuclear energy plays a vital role in promoting sustainable economic development and maintaining its reputation as a "green" energy necessitates the active involvement of all stakeholders in ensuring operational safety. As indicated in references [7][8][9][10][11][12], the shift towards a circular, "green" economy is a gradual process, and the energy sector necessitates support and diligent attention to safety at every level and stage of power facility equipment operation.…”
