51 Nuclear Companies and Power Utilities Analysed in New Report.

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c68394) has announced the addition of "Analyzing the Major Players in the Global Nuclear Power Industry - Companies & Nuclear Power Utilities" to their offering.

Today, only eight countries are known to have a nuclear weapons capability. By contrast, 56 operate civil research reactors, and 30 have some 435 commercial nuclear power reactors with a total installed capacity of over 370 000 MWe. This is more than three times the total generating capacity of France or Germany from all sources. Some 30 further power reactors are under construction, equivalent to 6% of existing capacity, while over 60 are firmly planned, equivalent to 18% of present capacity.

Electricity demand is increasing much more rapidly than overall energy use, and is projected to grow at 2.6% per year to 2030. Currently some two billion people have no access to electricity, and it is a high priority to address this lack.
