[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The diagram on the right shows the estimated cost of electricity generation, per kWh, for 3 different sources of energy. Nuclear power stations have a high start up cost compared to coal and gas stations but when other costs are taken into account, such and fuel and running costs, nuclear power is in fact the cheapest to generate. Onshore wind power stations of the same output costs much much more.
