'Person' seems the wrong way to put it. There is always a team involved. The first serious production of electricity from a nuclear reactor was at Calder Hall, UK, in 1956. The US followed soon after with the Shippingport PWR (1957 I think). These early reactors were quite small, about 50 MWe.

What country use first nuclear power?
the USA
What kind of nuclear resource does a nuclear power use?
What kind of nuclear resource being used in nuclear power depends on what kind of nuclear power is being used. For nuclear fusion, we use tritium and seawater to obtain deuterium for a DT reaction. In nuclear fission, we commonly use uranium ore.
How much of nuclear power do you use in the US?
The US generates about 20% of its electric power from nuclear power.
What fossil will be saved by increased use of nuclear power?
Use of coal, a fossil fuel, would be lessened by increasing the use of nuclear power.
Why do you use nuclear power?
We use nuclear power because it produces cheap electricity and they reduce the need to import fossil fuels.
What country use first nuclear power?
the USA
First Asian country to use nuclear power?
Japan
When did people begin using nuclear fission?
The first use of nuclear fission, aside from research, was the atom bomb drop on Hiroshima, on August 6, 1945. The first use of nuclear fission for power on an electric grid was when the Obrinsk Nuclear Power Plant in the USSR went on-line on June 27, 1954.
The use of nuclear reactors to generate electricity is what?
The use of nuclear power
What kind of nuclear resource does a nuclear power use?
What kind of nuclear resource being used in nuclear power depends on what kind of nuclear power is being used. For nuclear fusion, we use tritium and seawater to obtain deuterium for a DT reaction. In nuclear fission, we commonly use uranium ore.
What decade did the commercial use of nuclear power begin?
The commercial use of nuclear power began in the 1950's
Where and when was the first use of nuclear power to generate electricity?
At Calder Hall in Cumbria, England, 1956.
How much of nuclear power do you use in the US?
The US generates about 20% of its electric power from nuclear power.
Is a nuclear power plant producing electricity an example of nuclear fusion?
yes. this is because nuclear power plants use nuclear fusion
What fossil will be saved by increased use of nuclear power?
Use of coal, a fossil fuel, would be lessened by increasing the use of nuclear power.
In what decade did the use of nuclear power begin?
It could be argued that the use of nuclear power began in the 1950's when a nuclear reactor in the Idaho desert supplied electric power to a local community.
What energy do nuclear power plants create?
They use nuclear energy to produce power for the grid.
