The Lungmen Nuclear Power Plant under construction (now halted) This table lists stations under construction stations without any reactor in service. Planned connection column indicates the connection of the first reactor, not thus whole capacity.
The first commercial APR-1400 reactors at Shin Kori were approved in September 2007, [12] with construction starting in October 2008 (Unit 3) and August 2009 (Unit 4). [3] [13] [14] Shin Kori-3 was initially scheduled to commence operation by the end of 2013, but the schedules for both Units 3 & 4 were delayed by approximately one year to replace safety-related control cabling, which had ...
The reactor in Shidao Bay, China is the world’s first gas-cooled nuclear power plant built for commercial demonstration. It is cooled by helium and can reach high temperatures of up to 750 ...

Georgia Power announced Monday that the first of two nuclear reactors under construction at Plant Vogtle, in Burke County, has achieved “initial criticality,” meaning engineers have begun ...
The nuclear share in the world's power generation declined steadily from a historic peak of 17 percent in 1993 to about 10 percent in 2012. [7] The report details a range of restart scenarios for Japan's nuclear reactor fleet which, as of September 2013, [8] were all shutdown. Nuclear power's share of global commercial primary energy production ...
Nuclear power plants operate in 32 countries and generate about a tenth of the world's electricity. [2] Most are in Europe, North America and East Asia. The United States is the largest producer of nuclear power, while France has the largest share of electricity generated by nuclear power, at about 70%. [3]
