Rather than type out a long list, I refer you to the NRC website, see below
France is one of the "greenest" country in the world.One of the reason is the use of nuclear power to make electricity.
Most African countries use coal powered plants to supply electricity. South Africa is the country that generates and consumes the most electricity on the continent of Africa and has a nuclear plant, along with using other energy sources such as wind, solar and water.
nuclear and wind power
India is the fourth largest producer of electricity, but some people in India still do not have access to electricity. 88% of their power plants use non renewable fuel and 12% use renewable fuel. Thermal, hydroelectric and renewable, and nuclear power are used, with nuclear being the fourth-largest source after the others listed. India is a leader in wind generation and number one in terms of solar energy production per watt installed.
The coal is burned to generate heat. The heat is used to boil water which creates steam. The steam is used to turn large turbines. The rotary motion of the turbines generates electricity. The voltage of the electricity produced is 'stepped up' by means of a transformer. The high-voltage is fed to the national grid system for distribution.

It's about 20 percent of total electricity generated
The United States was the first country to use nuclear power for electricity generation, with the first nuclear power plant going online in 1957 in Shippingport, Pennsylvania.
In the US, nuclear power provides about 20% of the total electricity generation, making it the largest source of low-carbon electricity. There are 93 commercial nuclear reactors operating in 28 states.
The generation of electricity.
The first country to use nuclear power for electricity generation was the United States. The world's first commercial nuclear power plant, the Shippingport Atomic Power Station, began operation in 1958 in Pennsylvania. This marked a significant milestone in the development of nuclear energy as a source of power.
It is used for electricity in nuclear power plants == == Nuclear power is used to heat steam which then turns turbines, which generate electricity in nuclear power stations and also to provide propulsion and power on board nuclear submarines.
Nuclear power provides about 19 percent of total electricity, but when you use electricity you are not aware where it has come from
Nuclear power plants use nuclear energy as their source of power. They harness the energy released from nuclear reactions (such as fission) to generate electricity. The heat produced by these reactions is used to create steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.
Romania has two nuclear power units to produce electricity.
Approx 75 percent of electricity is nuclear in France
Electricity supplies in the US contain about 19 percent nuclear generation, so anything which uses electricity from the mains uses nuclear power
