The attitude towards nuclear power plants probably stems from the first use of nuclear energy which was the atom bombs dropped on Japan in WW2, therefore many people regard it as dangerous and perhaps even immoral. Then there is the unsolved problem of what to do with the waste from spent fuel, in the long run which means thousands of years before it is safe. Accidents like Chernobyl also arouse anxiety, though nothing like this has happened other than at that site and with that obsolete design of reactor.
What people seem to overlook is the danger of other types of fuel. Oil refineries quite often blow up with loss of life, coal mining has been a hazardous occupation for centuries and still is so, leakages of natural gas often occur and houses can explode as a result, but we don't rush to condemn the use of fossil fuels. I believe life would in fact be safer if we used nuclear produced electricity in our homes and industries instead of fossil fuels, but must admit the waste problem has to be solved. This needs political will and determination to achieve a solution, which has been sadly lacking both in the US and in Europe.
Nuclear energy is controversial due to concerns about safety, particularly after accidents such as Chernobyl and Fukushima. There are also issues related to nuclear waste disposal, cost, and potential nuclear proliferation risks. Additionally, some people worry about the long-term environmental impact of nuclear power plants.
Batteries use chemical energy to create voltage to drive current flow. They do not use nuclear energy.
there was nuclear energy in the science experiment
Nuclear fission is the method currently used for generating energy, while nuclear fusion is still being developed for practical use.
The most common use for nuclear energy is electricity generation in nuclear power plants. These plants use the heat produced by nuclear fission to create steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.

I think so, but others disagree. It is a controversial issue.

The use of nuclear energy
we use nuclear because it helps save energy
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.
In nuclear fission reactors
If you use nuclear energy in place of fossil fuels, you are conserving the fossil fuel, that is reducing the amount you use.

They use nuclear energy to produce power for the grid.
