Nuclear power is a source of energy generated using nuclear reactions. The heart of a nuclear power plant is the reactor, which supplies heat in the form of steam. The reactor sits inside the Nuclear Island, where all components associated with nuclear power generation are housed. The heat from the reactor is then transported to the Conventional Island, where it is converted to electricity and distributed to the electrical grid.
