River Bend nuclear power station is a General Electric boiling water reactor on a 3,300 acre (13 km²) site in St. Francisville, Louisiana near the State Capitol.

River Bend is operated by Entergy Nuclear and owned by Entergy Gulf States, Inc.

Entergy intends to build a new nuclear reactor at this site. See Nuclear Power 2010 Program.

Unlike the Waterford Nuclear Generating Station downriver in Hahnville, Riverbend continued operation throughout Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
