A nuclear power plant uses the heat that a nuclear reactor produces to turn water into steam, which then drives turbine generators that generate electricity. U.S. nuclear power plants use two types of nuclear reactors. Nuclear power plants in the United States have either a boiling-water reactor or a pressurized-water reactor.

Nuclear energy – alongside hydropower – is one of our oldest low-carbon energy technologies. Nuclear power generation has been around since the 1960s, but saw massive growth globally in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. In the interactive chart shown, we see how global nuclear generation has changed over the past half-century.
