English: Video diagram detailing the inner workings of a nuclear reactor: pressurized water type. Water is heated through the splitting of uranium atoms in the reactor core . The water, held under high pressure to keep it from boiling , produces steam by transferring heat to a secondary source of water.

The world's first and only nuclear power plant that put Gen IV reactors into commercial use is Shidao Bay Nuclear Power Plant. The reactor is a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor , started its building process on September 21 2014, [ 75 ] started to generate power December 20, 2021, [ 76 ] and was put into commercial operation in December 12 ...
The facility is approximately 30 miles (48 km) east of San Francisco, under jurisdiction of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Region IV. [2] The Vallecitos boiling water reactor (VBWR) was the first privately owned and operated nuclear power plant to deliver significant quantities of electricity to a public utility grid. During the period ...
