Full story: UK Can't Afford Cold Feet Over Nuclear Power (15-Oct-07)

Nuclear Power has been a controversial issue for many years, but with the increase in effort to become green the question is being raised as to when Britain will reinstate its nuclear power programme. However, there have been complaints that the government are moving somewhat slowly in this area, and seeing as it takes approximately 10 years to build a new nuclear power plant this is not an area that the UK can afford to have cold feet over.

It has been highlighted that reviving a nuclear power programme does not mean stopping the search for economic renewable energy sources or efficient ways of producing it, such as the combined heat and power system.
