No due to the chemicals that are needed
104 reactors
not normally if it is designed correctly and the operators are following the rules.
We have nuclear power plants to generate electric power without the generation of green house gasses. Yes, these complex systems pose risks, but we do our best to design and build them so they operate safely.

Nuclear power plants produce electricity by using nuclear energy
No, there is a small risk, but their energy output is much higher than that of other power sources

Nuclear power plants are expensive to build and need highly trained engineers to operate. Fear of a nuclear accident and fear of nuclear waste mean many people don't want nuclear plants to be built near them.
Britain does have nuclear power plants.
