Nuclear power in the United Kingdom generated 16.1% of the country's electricity in 2020. [1] As of August 2022, the UK has 9 operational nuclear reactors at five locations (8 advanced gas-cooled reactors (AGR) and one pressurised water reactor (PWR)), producing 5.9 GWe. [2]
This is a list of current and former electricity-generating power stations in England. For lists in the rest of the UK, including proposed stations, see the see also section below. Note that DESNZ maintains a comprehensive list of UK power stations .
Sizewell C nuclear power station is a project to construct a 3,200 MWe nuclear power station with two EPR reactors in Suffolk, England. [3] The project was proposed by a consortium of EDF Energy and China General Nuclear Power Group , which own 80% and 20% of the project respectively.
There are different ways to play the nuclear energy space, but two of the most interesting right now are Uranium Energy (NYSEMKT: UEC), which supplies power plants with nuclear fuel, and NuScale ...
NuScale Power and Oklo specialize in the development of small modular nuclear reactors, designed to produce a fraction of the power output of a traditional 1 gigawatt-plus nuclear power plant.
Great British Nuclear (GBN), formerly British Nuclear Fuels Ltd (BNFL), is a nuclear energy and fuels company owned by the UK Government. It is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero .
