Why is Australia not using nuclear power for electricity?
Australia has plenty of cheap coal so does not need nuclear power, and Australians prefer to keep it that way, though they don't mind selling uranium ore for peaceful purposes to other countries The following is taken from www.world-nuclear.org"In Australia the possibility of nuclear power is hindered in Victoria and NSW, by legislation enacted by previous governments. In Victoria the Nuclear Activities (Prohibitions) Act 1983 prohibits the construction or operation of any nuclear reactor, and consequential amendments to other Acts reinforce this. In NSW the Uranium Mining and Nuclear Facilities (Prohibitions) Act 1986 is similar. In 2007 the Queensland government enacted the Nuclear Facilities Prohibition Act 2006, which is similar (but allows uranium mining)."
