General U.S. Nuclear Info. U.S. electricity from nuclear energy in 2016: 19.7 percent, with 805.3 billion kilowatt-hours generated. Number of states with operating reactors: 30. Nuclear plants made up the largest percentage of the electricity generated in 2016 in six states. Nuclear industry capacity factor (2016): 92.1 percent.
Nuclear Plants. Nuclear plants use the fission process to generate the energy needed to produce electricity. In a nuclear plant, atoms of low-grade uranium are split apart. This creates the heat needed to create steam. The highly pressurized steam then travels through pipes to fan-like blades in a turbine.
