There are two operating nuclear power plants in Alabama, but there is a third that was partially built and is being considered again. The Brown's Ferry plant has been producing power at Athens, Alabama since December of 1973. The Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Generating Station at Dothan, Alabama began operations on December 1, 1977. The incomplete plant is the Belefonte Generating Station at Hollywood, Alabama.

This will be a hydro plant, or a series of them, not nuclear
What are three advantages of nuclear power plants compared with power plants that burn fossil fuels?
Nuclear power plants don't emit greenhouse gases, need little fuel to generate a lot of power, and can produce electricity continuously.
Why is three mile island nuclear plant called three mile island?
Because the power plants were built on an island named Three Mile Island.

What explains the position of those who oppose expanding nuclear power plants in the US?
Some opposition to the expansion of nuclear power plants in the US is generated by those who produce power by other means such as coal, oil, and gas. But the major opposition comes from the part of the population that has a somewhat exaggerated fear of nuclear power plants. Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima loom large as nuclear disasters. All three situations were the result of poor design and construction.
What are three ways that electricity is generated in the US?
Coal fired power plants, nuclear power plants, hydroelectric plants, wind generators and solar power plants can be found in the US. There are other types of power generating activities that can also be noted.
Three cities in which nuclear power should be used?
Nuclear power is not usually sited in cities, I'm not aware of any plants that are. They are always sited in non-urban areas.

Does Malaysia have nuclear power plants?
No it doesn't having Nuclear powere station The correct answer would be 'currently' Malaysia does not have any nuclear power plants but the government has announced the plan to build 2 nuclear power plants by 2020. As Malaysia has been heavily reliant on gas (around 60%) and coal (30%) the government would like to diversify the energy production and start using nuclear energy as the power generation for the rising electricity demand since it is cheaper in comparative. To produce 1,000 megawatts for one year 20 million tonnes of coal are need whereas only 30 tonnes of uranium are needed. I think this is a sufficient answer; Malaysia will have two nuclear power plants within the next decade or so.
