The Nuclear Power Market

The first commercial nuclear power plant was commissioned in the UK in 1956 and by 2005 nuclear power provided 6.5% of the world’s primary energy consumption and 9% of electricity generation.  

Nuclear power is now on an ascendant path, after years of stagnation. The environmental fight against fossil fuels is heating up and as informed people start to ask questions about what renewables will be able to achieve, nuclear power is re-entering the picture. In 2009 there are 439 nuclear power reactors in operation in 38 countries, with a total generating capacity of 370,721 MW. A further 36 nuclear plants are under construction and 316 are planned or proposed.

Nuclear power has been bedevilled by political perceptions, but other sources of power are now being subjected to similar scrutiny. Nuclear power stations are highly eficient, being operated at higher load factors than thermal or hydro stations. Public perception however has always been more afraid of nuclear power than the industry, and is largely unaware of the difference between the so-called "nuclear legacy" from the 1960s and 1970s, and the sophisticated "back-end" measures being engineered into modern nuclear plants. The ABS Nuclear Energy Report Ed 2 2009 provides a clear and objective look at nuclear energy. The report looks at the global nuclear energy market, past, present and future and examines which countries are considering Nuclear Power, including those considering it for the first time and several countries which are reinstating its use. There are many uncertainties about the economics and future of nuclear energy. Nuclear power plants are very expensive to build but costs are being reduced. The fuel is politically more secure than oil or gas but uncertainties also remain about the praticalities of nuclear energy. The Nuclear Energy Report provides a global overview with comprehensive data and country profiles of nuclear use and investiagtes the potential for the future.
