> Do these plants not require tons of water? If you’re referring to the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, it’s downstream of water treatment plants and is effectively evaporating the water from the effluent stream [1], in other words it’s cooled by 100% recycled water. Probably a significant amount of the evaporated water returns to the local area.
