power station?

Question

BRITIAN built the first nuclar power station in the world , what was it called ???????????

Answer 1

Electricity was generated for the first time by a nuclear reactor on December 20, 1951 at the EBR-I experimental station near Arco, Idaho, which initially produced about 100 kW (the Arco Reactor was also the first to experience partial meltdown, in 1955).

On June 27, 1954, the USSRs Obninsk Nuclear Power Plant became the world's first nuclear power plant to generate electricity for a power grid, and produced around 5 megawatts electric power.

The world's first commercial nuclear power station, Calder Hall in Sellafield, England was opened in 1956 with an initial capacity of 50 MW (later 200 MW).[

Answer 2

It was initially called , Calder Hall and then Windscale. Opened by the Queen in 1956.
Caught fire in 1957. Subsequently named Sellafield. As if we've all got short memories.
Some people maintained that fish in the Irish sea glowed in the dark as a result of leakage of radio-active cooling water into the Solway Firth.

Answer 3

Calder Hall in Cumbria. It`s in the process of being decommissioned as we speak. The cooling towers were demolished last weekend.

Answer 4

This is debatable.

The first operational nuclear reactor was built by Enrico Fermi - it certainly was not British.

Answer 5

Don't know, but I think they serve fish and chips there!
