Yes, they import it and put it in the reactor core where rods slow down the energy given off then it turns a generator which creates power
in the nucleus
Natural uranium
Uranium is more expensive, but the kWh in a nuclear power plant is more cheaper.
Uranium is not a fossil fuel; uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.
Depending on: - the type of the nuclear reactor - the electrical power of the nuclear reactor - the type of the nuclear fuel - the enrichment of uranium - the estimated burnup of the nuclear fuel etc.
Uranium
Uranium is the fuel that is used.
in the nucleus
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel.
Uranium 235
A nuclear power plant does use uranium as fuel It "burns" it in the nuclear sense not the chemical sense
a nuclear power plant produces electricity from uranium 235
Uranium (or plutonium) is a source of energy (nuclear fuel) in nuclear power plants.
The majority of commercial nuclear power reactors use uranium (natural or enriched) as nuclear fuel.
Nuclear power plants all use uranium to some degree. There are only two radioactive elements found on Earth in sufficient concentrations to mine that can be used for nuclear power. These are uranium and thorium. Thorium cycle power plants of various types are being researched and developed, but none are currently producing power for an electric grid. Uranium-233 is part of the thorium cycle, so uranium will be present in thorium cycle reactors, and its energy is used there. There are a number of nuclear plant designs that use plutonium, though they are not common. None is producing power in the United States. And even these also use uranium. In fact, the plutonium is produced from uranium.
