Overview: This paper summarizes about nuclear electricity in use. Just over 100 nuclear plants supply electricity for one of every five homes and businesses across the country. Nuclear energy is a reliable, safe and clean source of electricity for today, and it will be even more vital in the future. As nuclear energy's contribution to America's energy supply has increased, so too have the environmental advantages that it provides and its importance as a secure domestic energy source. In fact, with such a large output from relatively few plants, nuclear energy has the smallest environmental footprint of any large power supply source.
