This report compares nuclear plants, fossil fuels, and solar generators to determine which energy source will best meet the nation's needs. The criteria for comparison were the economic, social, and environmental effects of each alternative. The study concludes that nuclear energy is the best of these options because North America is not self-sufficient in fossil fuels and solar power is currently too unreliable for industrial use, although nuclear plants are potentially very dangerous.

“This report compares nuclear plants, fossil fuels, and solar generators, in
order to determine which energy source will best meet the nation's needs. The
criteria for comparison were the economic, social, and environmental effects
of each alternative. The study concludes that nuclear energy is the best of
these options, because North America is not self-sufficient in fossil fuels, and
solar power is currently too unreliable for industrial use. Although nuclear
plants are potentially very dangerous, nuclear energy is still the best short-
term solution.”
