<strong>atw</strong> Vol. 65 (2020) | Issue 10 ı October<br />

There were 54 (53, +0.5 %) plants with 59,137 MWe<br />

gross and 55,235 MWe net capacity under construction<br />

worldwide at the end of the last year 2019. That means<br />

that in comparison to the figure of the previous year,<br />

there was 1 nuclear power unit more under construction<br />

worldwide, since 5 projects have been newly started and<br />

4 plants have attained first criticality. No project was<br />

suspended in 2019.<br />

Work started <strong>for</strong> the first units Taipingling 1 (PWR HPR<br />

1000, 1,200 MWe gross and 1,116 MWe net capacity) and<br />

Zhangzhou 1 (PWR HPR 1000, 1,212 MWe gross and 1,126<br />

MWe net capacity) in China, the second unit Bushehr 2<br />

(PWR VVER V-510K, 1,057 MWe gross and 974 MWe net<br />

capacity) in the Iran, Kursk 2-2 (PWR VVER V-1000 AES-92<br />

1,255 MWe gross and 1,175 MWe net capacity) in Russia,<br />

and Hinkley Point C-2 (PWR EPR-1750, 1,750 MWe gross<br />

and 1,630 MWe net capacity) in the United Kingdom.<br />

Active construction projects (numbers in brackets) listed<br />

are: Argentina (1), Bangladesh (2), Belarus (2), Brazil (1),<br />

China (11), Finland (1), France (1), India (7), Japan (2),<br />

Republic of Korea (4), Pakistan (2), Russia (6), Slovak<br />

Republic (2), Taiwan (2), Turkey (1), the United Arab<br />

Emirates (4), the United Kingdom (2), and the USA (2).<br />

Worldwide there were about 200 projects (200,<br />

+-0.0 %) in the concrete planning or application phase<br />

at the turn of the year 2019/2020. In addition, there<br />

are a further approx. 100 (100,0 %) declarations of intent<br />

by companies or government offices in other countries.<br />
