The H.B. Robinson Nuclear Plant, located in South Carolina, is a facility that generates electricity using nuclear energy. It operates a reactor where uranium fuel undergoes controlled nuclear reactions to produce heat. This heat is then used to generate steam, which drives turbines connected to generators, producing electricity for homes and businesses. The plant is designed with multiple safety systems to prevent accidents and contain radiation. It plays a key role in providing reliable, clean energy, while adhering to strict regulations to ensure environmental and public safety.
