DOE's Nuclear Energy (NE) program promotes secure, competitive and environmentally responsible nuclear technologies to serve the present and future energy needs of the United States and the world. With the significant energy and environmental challenges facing the nation in this new century, the benefits of clean and safe nuclear energy are increasingly apparent. A key mission of DOE's nuclear energy research and development program is to strengthen that basic technology and, through some of the most advanced civilian technology research being conducted today, chart the way toward introduction of the next generation of nuclear power plants. The Office of Nuclear Energy also has responsibilities for space and defense nuclear power systems, advanced nuclear research and development, isotope production and distribution, nuclear facilities management, and nuclear fuel security. Additionally, the Energy Information Administration has statistical information related to the production and consumption of nuclear energy

Nuclear Power
TVA runs three nuclear power plants . Nuclear power makes about 30 percent of all the electricity generated by TVA, and about 20 percent of all the electricity generated in the United States. Nuclear power is produced when the atoms that make up enriched uranium are split. Uranium is mined from the ground, just like coal or copper or silver ore. The uranium is then formed into pellets that are put in tubes inside a nuclear reactor. Fission also creates radiation, which in high doses can hurt people. Learn more about radiation here Boiling-water reactors Pressurized-water reactors The pressurized water goes back to the reactor core to be heated again, and the steam from the second source of water is used to run the generator to make electricity. Pressurized-water plants like Sequoyah and Watts Bar are much more common in the United States. About 70 percent of U.S. nuclear power plants are pressurized-water reactors.

Prior to ProCon.org being formed in July 2004, ProCon.org's Chairman, Steve Markoff, and two others published an 87-page booklet in May 1988 about the pros and cons of nuclear power titled "How Practical Is Nuclear Power Now and for the Future?"
ProCon.org reformatted that 1988 booklet into a ProCon.org website, and although some have suggested that the site should not be listed as one of ProCon.org's issue websites, the site does contain valuable pro and con information about nuclear power.
For more current research on the pros and cons of nuclear power, see the Alternative Energy ProCon.org website.
For a list of our active and archived websites, please visit www.procon.org The booklet "How Practical Is Nuclear Power" (Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 87-092245) was originally published in May 1988 by the non-profit organization Association of Media Accuracy , co-founded by Steven C. Markoff (the eventual founder of ProCon.org) and Maury Weiner. On July 30, 2003 that 87-page booklet was converted into a website. On July 12, 2004, that website was transferred to ProCon.org under the site name www.NuclearPowerProCon.org.

Accidents and Dangers:
1984: Leakage of construction liquids created cavities in the chalk rock below the reactor. Construction of all blocks was halted while concrete was poured beneath their foundations. In 1984, there were also a number of radioactivity releases. In 1990, a rotor malfunctioned, causing the shutdown of reactor 3.

Key Arguments/History
At the end of the 1980s, the USSR Ministry of Energy considered the possibility of closing down the Rovno plants because there was a danger that subsidence of the chalk rock on which they were built would damage the foundations of the plants. The problem was partially solved by the filling of cavities under the reactors with concrete, but this continues to make trouble.

See more pictures of nuclear power When you hear the words "nuclear power," different images may flicker through your mind: concrete coolant towers emitting torrents of steam , a mushroom cloud rising high into the sky or even Homer Simpson asleep at the control panel. Some peopl­e praise the technology as a low-cost, low-emission alternative to fossil fuels, while others stress the negative impact of nuclear waste and accidents such as Three Mile Island and Chernobyl. There's a lot of discussion out there about nuclear power's role in our lives, but what's going on at the heart of these power plants? Up Next
