Nuclear power generates electricity through nuclear reactions that produce heat, which is commonly used to power steam turbines. It involves nuclear fission, decay, and fusion processes that primarily use elements in the actinide series. Nuclear power is considered a key future energy source and emission-free alternative, with over 440 reactors currently operating in 31 countries around the world.

6. Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release
nuclear energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then
used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power
plant. The term includes nuclear fission, nuclear decay
and nuclear fusion. Presently, the nuclear fission of elements in
the actinide series of the periodic table produce the vast majority
of nuclear energy in the direct service of
humankind, with nuclear decay processes,
primarily in the form of geothermal energy,
and radioisotope thermoelectric generators,
in niche uses making up the rest.

7. It is considered as one of main sources of the
world’s energy needs in the future. It Is also a
emission free alternative. There are 440 Nuclear
Power reactors in 31 country.
