1 Electricity is generated from the energy that is released when the atoms of these minerals are split (by nuclear fission) in nuclear reactors. 2  A small amount of radioactive material produces a lot of energy. 3  Raw materials are relatively cheap and can last quite a long time. 4  It doesn't give off atmospheric pollutants.
No, a refrigerator should not be transported on its side. Refrigerators should be kept in an upright position as much as possible. Laying a refrigerator on its side can lead to oil leaking into the cooling tubes, which can cause damage to the appliance.
This is my own theory, but I think it is pretty viable. If you need to lay it down, I would let the system sit back upright for about a day. I would then plug the refrigerator in for about 30 seconds to 1 minute at a time and let it rest for a couple minutes. Maybe repeat 5 times or so. Good Luck.
