Global Reactor Fleet by Country

Top 20 countries by operating reactor count, with under-construction overlay. The US leads in raw fleet (94 reactors); France leads in share of national electricity (~65%); China leads new construction. Japan is shown as nameplate (33) with operating-post-Fukushima (~12) called out. Source: IAEA PRIS.

Top 20 countries by operating civilian power reactors (IAEA PRIS Q1 2026). Capacities sum to ~387 GW gross across the listed fleet; global total is ~431 operating reactors. Special cases shaded: Japan reports 14 NRA-authorized and producing units against 33 on the PRIS roster (post-Fukushima permanent shutdowns excluded), and Ukraine reports 9 operational units (Khmelnitsky, Rivne, South Ukraine), with Zaporizhzhia 1-6 (5,700 MWe) in cold or hot shutdown under Russian military occupation since March 2022.

97 of 97 US commercial reactor units. 94 currently operating (~97 GW gross) plus 3 announced restarts (Palisades, Crane Clean Energy Center / TMI-1, Duane Arnold). Operator tickers identify publicly traded utilities (CEG Constellation, DUK Duke, SO Southern, NEE NextEra, ENT Entergy, VST Vistra, D Dominion, etc.). Five plants hold approved 80-year SLR licenses (Surry, Turkey Point, Peach Bottom, North Anna, Seabrook).

US Capacity Factor

Annual fleet-weighted average for the US nuclear fleet 2000-2025. The US runs ~89-93% capacity factor consistently, the highest of any generation type (gas ~57%, wind ~33%, solar ~25%). Source: EIA Electric Power Monthly.

US nuclear fleet weighted-average annual capacity factor, 2000-2025. The fleet has averaged 92.4% since 2015 (record 93.4% in 2019), with two visible dips: 2011-2012 post-Fukushima refueling and inspection extensions plus the San Onofre steam generator outage, and 2024 Texas summer heatwave outages at Comanche Peak and South Texas Project. Comparison reference lines show 2024 EIA full-year averages for natural gas combined cycle (~57%), onshore wind (~33%), and utility-scale solar PV (~25%). Nuclear remains the highest-CF utility-scale generation type. Sources: EIA Electric Power Monthly Table 6.07.B, EIA Annual Energy Outlook, Nuclear Energy Institute fleet performance reports.

US Restarts and Retirements

US nuclear capacity changes 2013-2026: the 2010s wave of premature retirements (Vermont Yankee, Crystal River, San Onofre, Indian Point, Palisades) is now being partly reversed by Vogtle 3+4 commissioning (2.2 GW added 2023-2024) and the Microsoft + Constellation Crane CEC restart (835 MW 2027-2028).

US nuclear capacity changes 2013-2026. Red bubbles = closed reactors (negative MWe). Green bubbles = restarted reactors and newly commissioned units (positive MWe). Bubble size scales with gross MWe per unit. Net change is dominated by the 2.2 GW Vogtle 3 + 4 commissioning (2023-2024) which roughly offsets the 2010s retirements wave.

Large New Builds Globally

Greater than 500 MWe reactor projects in construction or recently commissioned. Vogtle 3+4 ($35B all-in vs $14B original) and Hinkley Point C ($59B vs $24B original) anchor the Western FOAK cost story; UAE Barakah, Korean APR1400 fleet, and Chinese Hualong One demonstrate 5-7 year build pace at $2.5-5K/kW overnight.
