Most nuclear plants are owned by corporations. Before the accident, Three Mile Island was owned and operated by Constellation Energy (now Constellation Nuclear) and EnergySolutions.
AFAIK, There’s nothing that says you can’t make your own nuclear power plant. Just stuff forbidding you from obtaining nuclear material. Which would make it hard to operate a power plant. But you could still make one that doesn’t do anything!
Why can corporations own nuclear plants? Aren’t they people? Can I own a nuclear plant? Or am I just stuck building additional pylons?
You must construct additional pylons.
Roses are read
Violets are blue
The only additional pylon i need is you 💜

Strictly speaking, anyone can apply for a license to build a plant but you do need a license. The whole thing is pretty regulated.
I feel like that’s probably a good thing.
It’s stifles innovation.

Reminds me of this dude that tried to make a reactor out of americium from smoke detectors.
