The Experimental Breeder Reactor-I (EBR-I), located in Idaho, was the world's first nuclear reactor to generate usable electricity. It achieved this milestone on December 20, 1951, marking a major step in nuclear energy development. EBR-I was also a pioneering facility in demonstrating the concept of breeding, where it produced more fuel than it consumed. Today, EBR-I is a National Historic Landmark and stands as a symbol of early nuclear innovation.
