| Country | Plants/situation |
|---|---|
| Argentina | Two reactors in operation and Atucha II nuclear power plant will finished in 2013. Further four indigenous designed Pressurized Water Reactors planned at Angra Nuclear Power Plant. |
| Austria | Construction on the Zwentendorf Nuclear plant finished in 1978, however a referendum was passed that did not allow startup. Nuclear power is illegal. |
| Belarus | Announced in October 2007 that it will build its first nuclear reactor. Construction will commence in 2008 and will finish in 4 to 8 years. BBC source. |
| Brazil | Two reactors in operation, a third under construction since 2010 and other four projected as of 2011. See Angra Nuclear Power Plant. |
| China | Over 100 new reactors planned |
| Czech Republic | 6 reactors in 2 plants in operation (4 in Dukovany NPP and 2 in Temelín NPP). Three new reactors planned (Dukovany 5, Temelín 3 and Temelín 4) |
| Egypt | Listed as under construction -- incorrect, no power reactors under construction |
| Finland | Constructing the first European Pressurized Reactor facility at Olkiluoto. Two older reactor commercial facilities in Olkiluoto and Loviisa remain in use |
| Iran | Building reactor at Bushehr |
| Italy | Phased out nuclear power after Chernobyl. |
| Japan | As of 2012 Japan turned off all of its nuclear reactors. restarts expected |
| New Zealand | |
| North Korea | construction of several commercial nuclear reactors started, but none completed. |
| Philippines | 1 plant, the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant, was mothballed; never fuelled. |
| Poland | A nuclear power plant in Żarnowiec was planned in the early 1990's, however, protests led to the cancellation of the project. The current government is planning to bulid a nuclear power plant based on French reactor technology. |
| Slovakia | 4 reactors in 2 plants in operation, 2 reactors are being build until 2013 and there are plans to replace the closed reactors of the Jaslovské Bohnuice plant with new ones. |
| South Korea | South Korea has many units of the CANDU and PWR designs at 4 locations. Currently, there are multiple units at Shin Wolsong and Shin-Kori under construction See Nuclear power in South Korea |
| Sweden | Sweden has ten commercial reactors at three different locations (Forsmark, Ringhals and Oskarshamn). There are no longer plans to phase out nuclear power in Sweden. The current centre-right government has made it possible to replace current reactors, but does not allow an increase in the current number reactors and will allow construction only at the three current locations. See Nuclear power in Sweden |
| Turkey | Turkey to build Atmea |
| United Kingdom | The government has had pressure to both increase nuclear power generation as well as stop expansion, Currently 10 reactors are planned to replace aging AGRs. The Scottish government will not allow any new construction on Scottish territory. See Nuclear power in the United Kingdom. |
| United States of America | See Nuclear power in the United States. |
