The reactor building will be built on the (to be completed) platform. [165] This construction start marks the first new reactor build in the UK after a 30-year break, and the second PWR in the UK, after Sizewell B. Completion of the base for the first reactor, the final 8,954 cubic metres (316,200 cu ft) of concrete, was achieved in June 2019 ...
The list only includes civilian nuclear power reactors used to generate electricity for a power grid. All commercial nuclear reactors use nuclear fission. As of May 2021, there are 180 operable power reactors in Europe, with a combined electrical capacity of 159.36 GW. [1] There are currently 8 power reactors under construction in Europe. [2]
The Olkiluoto plant consists of two boiling water reactors (BWRs), each with a capacity of 890 MW, and one EPR type reactor (unit 3) with a capacity of 1,600 MW. [1] This makes unit 3 currently the most powerful nuclear power plant unit in Europe and the third most powerful globally.
