nuclear facilities

Power plant complexes

Nuclear facilities are sites where nuclear materials are processed, stored, or used—power plants generating electricity, research reactors, uranium enrichment plants, or weapons production complexes.

The term often appears in contexts of international security and nonproliferation: Inspectors demanded access to the country's nuclear facilities.

A nuclear facility requires extensive safety protocols and regulatory oversight.
