Nuclear power generation is a method of producing electricity by harnessing the energy released during nuclear fission. In this process, the nuclei of heavy atoms, such as Uranium or Plutonium, are split into smaller parts, releasing a significant amount of energy in the form of heat. This heat is then used to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity. Nuclear power is considered a low-carbon energy source, making it an important player in efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, it also raises concerns regarding radioactive waste, nuclear accidents, and the potential for nuclear proliferation, necessitating strict safety measures and regulations.
