Nuclear Power Plants in Ohio: A Comprehensive Guide
Often referred to as a nuclear power plant, a power reactor is a facility that produces electricity via a nuclear reaction, characterized by the continuous splitting of uranium atoms. Ohio is home to two nuclear power plants situated along the shores of Lake Erie in the northern region of the state. These are the Davis-Besse plant located in Oak Harbor, near Sandusky, and the Perry Nuclear Plant, positioned east of Cleveland. (A third plant, located in Piqua, Ohio, was closed in 1966.)
