Nuclear Energy or Nuclear Power is a way of generating electricity that involves the use of nuclear reactions that release nuclear energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power plant.
Benefits
- Nuclear Power Plants use the least amount of land of any clean energy source. Solar power requires 75x more space and wind power requires 360x more space.[1]
