Nuclear energy can be used as:

  1. kinetic energy (e.g. in submarines and ice breakers)
  2. process heat (e.g. for district heating, nuclear desalination, hydrogen production)
  3. electricity generation
  4. radiation for medical treatment and diagnosis as well as sterilization and in industry and agriculture
