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!

Strictly speaking, anyone can apply for a license to build a plant but you do need a license. The whole thing is pretty regulated.

The whole thing is pretty regulated.

I feel like that's probably a good thing.
