As an engineer,i am for nuclear clean power good for our country needs now,this is positive for us,kudos for our congressman on this.
di matutulo yan, kahit pumasa sa lower house e puro tungaw ang nasa upper house. harang pa din.
@@johnneil1313Reactors, which rely on technologies developed over 40 years ago. They are expensive to build and even more so to maintain across their lifecycle. Costs do not just concern the initial construction, but also the ongoing price of fuels, operational costs, and engineering fees. And then there’s the problem of the nuclear waste.
Nuclear energy ‘does not reduce the price of electricity’
Nuclear power plants can be attractive for their owners but not necessarily for consumers as they hardly ever determine the price of electricity on the energy exchange.
If you replace the capacity of a nuclear power plant for example by the capacity of a coal power plant, the price will not change because it is still the natural gas power plant being the most expensive one and deciding about the price.
This is a question of who gains and who pays. When somebody says that the nuclear power plant is cheap, it is for the owner but not necessarily for the consumer
@@EckonOmyst-jv1ro edi dapat sinabi mo yan sa japan o sa ibang bansang may nuclear para mapilit mo silang tangalin nuclear nila. Kung puro negative na tao nasa pinas kagaya mo e hindi uunlad ang bansa. Tapos siguro kung makapagpost ka ng travel mo sa ibang bansa proud na proud ka haha. Engineer ako kaya alam ko pros and cons nyan tinuruan mo pa ko.
@@EckonOmyst-jv1roall you said is wrong and keep your negativity to yourself.
1. The nuclear technology now is at generation 4 and more advanced than 40 years ago. Don't be idiot. International Technical standards are used in engineering design are updated every 4 years to adopt with the changing times. That means, the nuclear technology now is 10x safer than 40 years ago.
2. The safety record of nuclear power plants is almost 100% perfect. Westinghouse's PWR technology is now the adopted base standard and is safer than the BWR of GE (who built the Fukushima). Of thousands nuclear plants built by Westinghouse, none of these has ever experienced a major accident.
2. Yes, to build nuclear power plant is expensive because the safety requirements and regulations are very high too, plus the design life is 50 years or more. The longer the design life, and the higher the safety requirements, these are directly proportional to the cost of building the plant. Engineering of nuclear power plants have to consider all environmental risks such as earthquake, wind, and tsunami. The design factor is very high which makes the plant very expensive. So the nuclear plants are the most safest than any other plants.
3. But the economic capital expenditure of nuclear plant can be repaid in less than 5 years because the operation cost is very cheap. Taking the 50 years design life than 30 years for coal plant means the economic advantage will be 45 more years without need to build new plant.
3. The regulations for storage of waste nuclear fuel should follow the international standards, the IAEA specifies the minimum safety requirements. It wouldn't be the local engineering standard.
USD20M vs. USD500M.
Chernobyl was a case of not abiding to safety protocols that require presence of engineer or scientist to any non-routine activities, high school graduates were left all alone in Chernobyl case. Nuclear waste can still be used to generate power
No one can tell exactly what will and will not happen. It is much safer for you not to hold a dynamite or grenade in your hand wishing it will not explode. In Japan for instance, they are a more developed country and more technically advanced than Philippines. Would anyone here who advocates for nuclear energy still believes that if you observe and strictly follow procedures, accidents and disaster will not happen? You must be dillusional then. If you wanted to endanger your lives then do so but leave others out of it. You did not experience what those victim of nuclear power plant disaster had gone through. As a result of the nuclear plant disaster, which caused the triple tragedy of the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear accident, approximately 20,000 people lost their lives and over 2,500 are still officially reported as missing, while a further 6,000 suffered injuries. In total, over 470,000 people were evacuated from their homes. You have NO RIGHT to endanger the lives of others for your greed
Nuclear energy ‘does not reduce the price of electricity’
Nuclear power plants can be attractive for their owners but not necessarily for consumers as they hardly ever determine the price of electricity on the energy exchange
The price of electricity is formed at the energy exchange and it is always determined by the most expensive power plant which is necessary to meet demand. And usually it is the gas power plant which is the most expensive and determines the price of electricity
This is a question of who gains and who pays. When somebody says that the nuclear power plant is cheap, it is for the owner but not necessarily for the consumer
@@EckonOmyst-jv1rogo and live in a cave. Your fear mongering will not make you progressive.
Note, Ukraine,where Chernobyl is located, still use nuclear power. So even those most affect think it's safe enough to use
I salute you Honorable congressman for taking the stand for the Philippine future in energy creation and consumption. A stronger economic sound Philippine needs an energy strong plan that deliver independence for its people power.
Kelangan talaga totally mapalitan na yung coal ng nuclear at ibang renewable energy. Maliban sa mahal pa yung coal, nakakasira pa ng kalikasan. Kelangan na nila madaliin yan lalo't paubos na daw yung malampaya sa 2027, pag yun naubos sa coal nlng talaga tayo aasa at lalong tataas kuryente, pag tumaas kuryente kasama din inflation pati mga investment baka magsi-alisan at wala nang pumasok.
And your conclussion is that nuclear will not harm the environment? You must be a dimwit. Nuclear energy ‘does not reduce the price of electricity’

Great reporter. Interviewing someone while there's someone with a microphone in the background. I wonder if all that background noise was even taken into account.

The nuclear industry has been in decline in the USA for decades. Despite the country being one of the first nations to generate nuclear energy for commercial civilian purposes, there have been few developments since the late 1970s. For instance, since 1978, only two nuclear power plants have started construction, and that only occurred in 2013.
This industry has stalled because of various broad challenges related to economics, regulatory frameworks, and technological problems, as well as declining respect within the public sphere.

Costs do not just concern the initial construction, but also the ongoing price of fuels, operational costs, and engineering fees. And then there’s the problem of the nuclear waste, which in the US is mostly stored in tanks at sites owned by the Department of Energy
The industry was also fatally wounded by the Three Mile Island partial meltdown in 1979, which caused new regulatory delays to the 51 new reactors that were under construction at the time. With the introduction of new safety procedures and back-fit requirements, the speed of construction was slowed down, and the costs skyrocketed for many reactors. After that, many contracts were canceled and the industry ground to a halt.

The abundance of uranium in seawater is much less than ore grade deposits. Right now he’s saying it makes sense to buy cheaper abroad but it’s a possibility of supply.
Go for Nuclear! Full suppport on Nuclear..
Daming daldalan hanggang ngayon , dapat matagal ng nai-operate yan at bawi na gastos sa pagpapatayo . Kung takot silang i-operate ibigay nila sa akin management ng operation and i can assemble a team confident to operate BNPP kahit pa fresh graduates
Agree po. Sana mabasa to or sumulat po kayo papunta ng congress o pangulo.
Pinagsasabi mo? It's a political issue eversince, hindi yan dahil maioperate agad. Kung pwede lang ma operate then it can be operated by all means.
Operating a nuclear power plant in a country where it has never been done before, politically challenged and hit by 20 typhoons a year is never that simple. You're one of the bubus why the process is taking a longer time
Matagal na yan. Kung nasimulan lang yan nong una, wala tayong problema ngayon. Sana maumpisahan na yan kasi ang mahal ng ating kuryente ngayon. One of the keys to prosperity is stable and enough energy.
The economic engine of the entire country is the NCR. I suggest the NCR and Cebu get nuclear power plants.
Kelan ito gagawin kaya
Old systems are sure needs correct reevaluation as to its use: safety or effeciency or only the qualified authorities may declare and no politician can decide...😂😂😂
Mabuhay ka po Rep Cojuanco
Tapos sabi nila 5yrs ang inaabot sa pagpapatayo ng nuclear plant, kung every administration mula ngayon magpatayo ng kahit isa, napakalaking addition na yun sa total power natin.
Reporter doesn't know what she is talking about. Embarrassing
True 😂 nagmumukha syang against to the project ng di manlang pinagaaralan o inaalam bago siya mag interview 😂
Go , go, go for nuclear energy a cheapest energy than fossil or coal also a green energy
High time to utilize this power plant...
very unprofessional, why would you do an interview in the middle of an event?
once na ma implement na ang nuclear energy sa pilipinas ang gas ay magmumura at tsaka magkakaroon din tyo ng electric car which is good for transportation and environment
go nuclear power. dmr nio maliligtas na buhay. sa panahon ngaun na panay brownout icpin nio ung mga hospital patient, work from home etc. na maliligatas nio. kaya wag na kayo mga hipokrito. isang araw lng na wala ilaw dme na nawalan ng kinita na pera sa araw araw.
Iam for nuclear mostly sa europe wind farm na at ang daming nuclear reactor!! With this we can boost our economy and FOR THE PEOPLE NOT FOR THE GAHAMAN NA POLITIKOS THANK YOU RESIDENT FOR PUSHING NUCLEAR
ano na! bakit ayaw! png umpisahan! ang laking ng kuryente ko ngaun oh wala akong pmbayad!!
No to nuclear power
Langyang reporter to bat kc ayaw muna lumabas? Nandun sya sa loob, sumasabay sya sa program ng event buti di mabwisit yung host ng program ingay ingay nya sa likod 😂😅
Ayos po yan Congressman Cojuangco.
This is a good start. If a country wants to develop its industry and increase quality of life/economy, we need to implement nuclear power. My thoughts din:
1. Instead of reopening Bataan, why not build a new power plant? Bataan is one of the older generation power plants, eh now the new gen power plants are safer and more efficient. For the safety alone it's worth it, kasi 'pag may nangyaring aksidente sa Bataan power plant, it will once again push the country against nuclear power.
2. I think kailangan din matuto mag-enrich ng uranium ang Pilipinas. That will help our science & technology sector develop smarter professionals and engineers. Tapos, knowing how to enrich uranium will help us understand kung paano talaga gumagana ang nuclear power. Kung ang worry ay baka makagawa ng weapons grade uranium, that's unfounded. Enriching uranium for nuclear power is completely different from enriching uranium for weapons use. Kung ikukumpara, enriching uranium for nuclear power ay parang gumagawa ka lang ng bisikleta. Sa garahe lang with basic tools. Kung mag-eenrich ng uranium for weapons grade, para kang gumagawa ng big bike. Ducati. Hindi mo lang yan magagawa sa garahe. Kailangan mo ng experto at very expensive, very specialized equipment.

@@EckonOmyst-jv1roALL you said is fear mongering and wrong. Newer power plants are now generation 4. The international safety regulations have now updated by 10x more than 40 years ago.
Why not restart the BNPP? Lots of still running nuclear power plants built in the 1980s are still running until today. In South Korea and Taiwan, there are sister plants built by Westinghouse in the 1980s. The BNPP's design for earthquake can withstand the same for nuclear plants in Japan which is 4g or up to 10 richer scale, hence expensive fo build, and the earthquake safety is higher than the 7 richter scale recorded in the Philippines. The BNPP is very safe, although will need to be upgraded to comply with latest international engineering standards and regulations.
Sobrang mahal talaga ng kuryente sa pilipinas. Grabe.
ANC fix your tech!!!
Mr Senator better go to the Senate to fight for regulation.
karamihan ng senator ay shareholder ng meralco
go nuclear na
this is good news!
Thank you sir cojuangco.
Very poor interviewer
naunsa pod ning nag interview naa man sa nagsiminar nag live
aba dalian na yan atat na ako sa aircon maghapon 😂😂
Sa russia maganda ang Uranium. Kaya kahit may sanction bumibili parin sila ng Uranium at gas. Hahahaha
Government should own the nuclear facilities 100% no private company, so income will be utilize well instead of 25-30% tax if they are privately owned.
Government is no longer allowed to operate any power plant. The mandate of NPC was changed by Corykong in 1987. NPC operation is now for MISSIONARY electrification of in far flung areas. It is no longer allowed to compete in power sector business against the private sector.
For sure oppose ang NAPOCOR & Meralco d2. Instantly mag switch ako kagas sa nuke elec
Geothermal Energy walang bibilhin kasi galing ang init sa ilalim ng lupa. Wag tayong pumayag sa peligrosong nuclear energy. GEOTHERMAL ENERGY is the best source of energy for the country..
Akala mo madali maghukay ng steam mula sa ilalim ng lupa
Di mo alam sinasabi mo. Gumagamit ka nga ng apoy sa bahay mo panluto.
Nuclear lang yung malinis at reliable.
Yung nga geothermal na yan, di consistent at reliable yan. Inefficient pa.
The maintenence cost of geothermal energy is far higher than nuclear plants. Geothermal steam is highly corrosive and will require special metals to build the process piping.
Bakit atat na atat ka Cojuanco sa nuclear power Ng Pilipinas?
Para siguro gagawa din ng nuclear weapon
kasi tang@ ka.
Para maiahon ka sa kahirapan. Bat ka nangaano e tinutulungan ka na nga.
Matagal na sana tayung nuclear energy dependent, naunahan pa tau ng bangladesh na mahirap na bansa meron sila 2. Kaya maraming mga factory ng japanese nag tatayuan sila duon.
@@jerometeluz ok lang kabayan. Dios ang nakakaalam, baka sa panahong iyon di pa ikakabuti sa atin na magkaroon tayo ng Nuclear power...baka ngayon na ang tamang panahon.
