What's "U/C"

[edit]

What is a "U/C" reactor?

The third column in the table of "Nuclear power by country in 2021" is "U/C", right after "Operational" both pertaining to "Reactors". It should be decoded in a note, e.g., at the end of the table.

Per the text, U/C is an abbreviation for "under construction," but since the term is used only once and is not widely known, the abbreviation is not needed. NPguy (talk) 02:59, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request of Italy

[edit]

In the map Italy could be wrongly classified and should be changed to something like “phased out”. As far as I know there’s no active law or moratorium making the use of nuclear energy illegal. The referendums on nuclear energy only have abrogative power. This article by IAEA explains the laws and regulatory framework of nuclear energy in Italy: https://cnpp.iaea.org/countryprofiles/Italy/Italy.htm 2A0E:427:E58:0:907A:81B8:E8AE:D443 (talk) 12:28, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

% Numbers For Slovenia Are Incorrect

[edit]

Under "Overview - Nuclear Power by Country" it is listed that our power plant provides 42.8% of our power demands. That is incorrect as the output is equally shared between Slovenia and Croatia and the plant only covers about 20%.

Mix of different dates and data

[edit]

The tables assess that the figures at related to 2024. This is wrong, the figures are from 2022, with some data removed, like Germany. All the article suffers this mix. It starts at the source of the first phrase, which dates 2022, and contradicts its content. Borvan53 (talk) 12:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Australia should be black on the map

[edit]

Civilian nuclear power is banned in Australia. It should be painted black on the map.

I would also use the word "Banned" instead of "illegal"

It will be good to see on which countries it is "unregulated" Dario (talk) 00:39, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, Australia does have a research reactor. It would be interesting to see which countries currently possess any reactors. TJN92 (talk) 22:40, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
