Nuclear power stations provide a comparatively large volume of power - more than double the output of an oil power station. However, this comes at a cost: nuclear power generation runs the risk of a runaway fission reaction causing a nuclear meltdown, irradiating areas of the city and causing them to be uninhabitable. If you do intend to use nuclear power, be sure to cover it with fire stations and above all, check the power plant regularly to see if it's deteriorating.

Unlike in real life, the in-game nuclear plant does not release pollution during normal operation.
