Turkey Point
Turkey Point is a nuclear power plant located in Florida, near the southern tip of the Florida peninsula. It is operated by Florida Power & Light Company and consists of two pressurized water reactors. The plant generates a significant portion of the electricity used in the region, contributing to the local and state energy supply.
The facility is situated on the shores of Biscayne Bay and is known for its environmental monitoring programs. Turkey Point has faced scrutiny over its impact on local ecosystems, particularly concerning the nearby Everglades and marine life in the bay.
