Nuclear energy involves splitting atoms to generate heat and produce electricity. There are two main types of nuclear reactions - fission and fusion. Fission occurs when atoms are bombarded with neutrons and split, releasing energy. This energy heats water to produce steam that drives turbines to generate electricity. While nuclear energy produces low emissions, concerns include nuclear waste disposal and risks of accidents. The global need for nuclear energy relates to growing demand, reliable baseload pow
