Global nuclear power generation hits record high in 2025, with net growth mainly driven by China
According to the latest release of the Statistical Review of World Energy, global nuclear power generation reached 2,845 TWh in 2025, an increase of approximately 30 TWh from 2024, up 1.3% year-on-year, setting a new record. Among this, China's nuclear power generation increased by more than 34 TWh, becoming the primary source of net global nuclear growth. This record needs to be viewed within a longer timeframe. The previous peak in global nuclear power generation occurred in 2006, when it reached 2,803 TWh. In other words, although 2025 global nuclear power generation has surpassed the previous peak, the cumulative increase over 19 years is only about 1.5%, which does not indicate rapid expansion on a global scale. Over the past decade, global nuclear power generation has risen from 2015...

Global Nuclear Power Construction Accelerates, Asian Countries Lead the Way
Global nuclear power construction is accelerating, particularly in the Asian region. China is currently the most active country in nuclear power construction worldwide, with more than twenty nuclear reactors under construction, far surpassing other nations. This large-scale investment reflects China's emphasis on energy security and reducing carbon emissions. India follows closely behind, also actively expanding its nuclear power capacity to meet growing electricity demand and achieve climate goals. Beyond Asia, several European countries are also increasing their nuclear power capacity. Although France already possesses a large number of existing nuclear power plants, it is also advancing the construction of new nuclear reactors, aiming to maintain the share of nuclear energy in its energy mix. The United Kingdom is likewise committed to developing nuclear power, with plans to build new...
