They aim to cut emissions from the nation's current fleet of power plants 32 percent by 2030, and to prevent new power plants from being built unless they come with emission-capturing technology. The rules will have the greatest impact on coal-fired power plants, which are responsible for about 40 percent of all U.S. emissions.

Power plants that run on fossil fuels burn coal, oil or natural gas to generate heat. In a nuclear energy plant, heat is produced from splitting atoms - a process called nuclear fission. Nuclear reactor creates heat that is used to make steam. The steam turns a turbine connected to an electromagnet, called a generator.
