Nuclear power stations, also known as nuclear power plants, are facilities that generate electricity through nuclear reactions, typically through the process of nuclear fission. In these plants, the nuclei of heavy atoms, such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239, are split into smaller parts when they absorb a neutron, releasing a significant amount of energy in the form of heat.
