- Nuclear power - Wikipedia
Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants
- What is Nuclear Energy? The Science of Nuclear Power
Nuclear energy is a form of energy released from the nucleus, the core of atoms, made up of protons and neutrons This source of energy can be produced in two ways: fission – when nuclei of atoms split into several parts – or fusion – when nuclei fuse together
- Nuclear - Department of Energy
Nuclear power, the use of sustained nuclear fission to generate heat and electricity, provides around 6 percent of the world's energy
- Nuclear power | Definition, Issues, Facts | Britannica
There are two ways of releasing nuclear energy: fission and fusion Nuclear power provides almost 15 percent of the world’s electricity The first nuclear power plants, which were small demonstration facilities, were built in the 1960s
- What Is Nuclear Energy? | Nuclear Regulatory Commission
When the electricity is made from atoms splitting apart, it's called nuclear energy All power plants convert heat into electricity using steam At nuclear power plants, the heat to make the steam is created when atoms split apart — called fission When atoms split apart, they release heat
- Nuclear explained - U. S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)
All nuclear power plants use nuclear fission, and most nuclear power plants use uranium atoms During nuclear fission, a neutron collides with a uranium atom and splits it, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation
- What Is Nuclear Energy?
Nuclear energy comes from splitting atoms in a reactor to heat water into steam, turn a turbine and generate electricity Ninety-four nuclear reactors in 28 states generate nearly 20 percent of the nation’s electricity, all without carbon emissions because reactors use uranium, not fossil fuels
