In the introduction, the article says that the USA produce "800 TWh of zero-emissions electricity per year". It is obvioulsy not zero-emission: green house gases are emitted in the process of building the plant, extracting and transporting the fuel and decomissionning the plant. 82.147.145.235 (talk) 05:24, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Under the section titled 'Safety' in the third paragraph 'With a death rate of 0.07 per TWh' should be changed to 'With a death rate of 0.03 per TWh'. The source is citation 199 in the nuclear power page, which is this article [1].
This is the source cited for the original statistic, but I believe it was copied incorrectly. ThePiMaven (talk) 19:57, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed. It was not copied incorrectly, but the source has been updated in 2022, based on more recent analysis and estimates. --TuomoS (talk) 20:38, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The vertical axis is labelled in TWh which is a unit of energy not power. I guess the graph is of TWh/year which is a (weird) unit for power. 2,500 TWh/year is 290GW BTW. Does this bother anyone else? PeterGrecian (talk) 08:18, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see what's the problem. That's the energy generated each year (not the installed capacity). This is the standard way and units for displaying this information. The convention in energy engineering and energy science is to use kW and multiples for installed capacity and kWh and multiples (including TWh) for energy generated. --Ita140188 (talk) 12:47, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change number of employees from 556 to 329.
I’m an employee there and this is the number listed in our Outlook directory. It is well known publicly that we had significant layoffs in 2024 (~28% in January and then ~10% more in July). 131.150.2.197 (talk) 15:04, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: I think you added this to the wrong article. This is the article on nuclear power. It does not have any employee counts that I can find. meamemg (talk) 17:05, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The lead section states that nuclear power is sustainable. But the Wikipedia article on sustainable energy states "There is controversy over whether nuclear power is sustainable." There is a lack of consistency between these two articles. I think one or both of the articles should be changed so they are consistent. I would like to know what others think.

The lead is supposed to summarize the article, and the content should be sourced somewhere in the article. I'd look for where those statements are sourced in each article and go from there in order to summarize all available and good sources. ---Avatar317(talk)02:02, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
