Six consequences of the March 2011 accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station : fragmentation of the power grid ; the low electric supply capacity of certain entities ; the lack of effective mechanisms for curtailing demand at times ; the inability of customers to choose a power source or supplier ; the failure to manage the energy risks associated with a shutdown of  nuclear power plants ; the urgent need to confront the risk of severe accidents and other hazards associated with nuclear power facilities.
