HANGIN’ WITH MR. COOPER: The Cooper Nuclear Station is the largest, single-unit electrical generator in Nebraska and produces approx. 835 megawatts of electricity.
That’s enough power to help more than 385,000 residential customers beat the heat this summer.

**Response to @GovNuclear:**
The recovered uranium is cleaned & mixed with lower enriched uranium to create HALEU.
The uranium is then fabricated into new fuel in a high-temperature furnace.
The material will be used to support current testing & demonstration projects.
