摘要：

Nuclear power is confronted with a number of challenges in the near term. One major constraint is the economics of nuclear power driven, by both the high capital costs and financial uncertainties. The second is concern about catastrophic accidents; despite the development of newer reactor designs, the possibility of such an accident has not been completely eliminated. A third is to find a way of disposing nuclear waste that is technically feasible and politically acceptable to the public.
