Nuclear energy comes from splitting atoms in a reactor to heat water into steam, turn a turbine and generate electricity. Today, 92 nuclear reactors in 28 states generate nearly 20 percent of the nation’s electricity without emitting carbon. And nuclear plants are always on, even during extreme weather, supporting the grid 24/7.
