A nuclear power plant is a facility where electrical energy is produced through nuclear reactions. It operates by using nuclear fuel, such as uranium, which undergoes a process of nuclear fission in which large amounts of energy are released.
This thermal energy is used to generate steam, which in turn drives a turbine and generates electricity.
Nuclear power plants are an efficient and powerful source of energy, but they also require strict safety controls due to the radioactivity associated with the nuclear materials used.
