Analyzes have shown that 15,2 billion tons of water have been lost from its natural water reservoirs - that corresponds to 760 million tons of water every year. This loss of water, groundwater and soil occurs because since 2002, less water has been added through inflows and precipitation than has been lost through evaporation and runoff. Especially since 2015, the balance sheet of...

The operator was Exelon Generation Co. and the manufacturer was Westinghouse. In 2006, Excelon was accused of discharging millions of gallons of tritum-contaminated wastewater into the groundwater from spring 1996 to March 2006, which the operator did not report until December 2005. For example, on June 16, 2005, tritium leaked from the nuclear power plant and contaminated the local water supply; the damage...

Safety deficiencies In June 2011, it was reported in the US media that leaks from which tritium had escaped, often into groundwater, were found at 48 of 65 nuclear power plant sites in the US. In some cases drinking water was also contaminated, in others cesium-137 and strontium-90 were also released. The cause was the corroded underground of old nuclear power plants, which...
In the past, the mechanical energy made available by windmills was used directly on site to drive machines and devices. With their help, grain was ground into flour, groundwater was pumped to the earth's surface, and sawmills were operated. Today, the generation of electrical energy with wind turbines is by far the most important use. At the end of 2020 there were...
