However, this positive development must be put into the context of the upheaval there has been in global energy supply over the last 12 months. While governments redoubled their commitments to reducing greenhouse gas emissions at COP26 in Glasgow, the recovery of economies following the harsh impacts of COVID-19 led to a surge in energy demand that outstripped the growth in production from clean sources such as nuclear, resulting in more reliance on fossil fuels. The war in Ukraine has made vividly clear the fragility of the fossil fuel supply chain, underscoring concerns that were already exposed as a consequence of the pandemic. In many regions energy prices are rising, fuel ing inflation and worsening energy poverty. Fearful of losing access to gas imports and facing blackouts and energy shortages, governments are cal l ing on coal-fired power plants to restart. While such short-term actions may be necessary in the midst of a crisis, they are unsustainable. It is therefore welcome that many governments are now realizing that nuclear energy can propel the drive to net-zero emissions and be the foundation of a more secure energy system. The challenge now is to take the concrete actions needed to turn those policy aspirations into operating nuclear power plants. The increase in nuclear generation in 2021 flatters the fact that there has been a decl ine in global nuclear capacity over the last two years. In other words more reactors are being closed down than are starting up. T o reverse this trend, two things need to happen. First, reactors that are operating successfully today need to operate for longer. T oo many of the reactor closures of the last few years have been motivated by political reasons or by dysfunctional markets. Long-term operation of nuclear reactors is the lowest cost form of additional low-carbon generation and helps reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Second, the pace of new nuclear construction must increase. In 202 1 first concrete was poured for ten new reactors. Although that is better than in recent years, we still need to see twenty, thirty or more new reactor construction starts per year soon, to ensure that nuclear energy plays the role it should in delivering a secure and sustainable net-zero future. Preface Sama Bilbao y León Director General World Nuclear Association4 1.1 Global highlights Nuclear reactors generated a total of 2653 TWh in 2021, up 100 TWh from 2553 TWh in 2020. This is the third highest ever total for global generation from nuclear, just short of the 2657 TWh output of 2019 and 2660 TWh in 2006, and reestablishes the upward trend in nuclear generation seen since 2012, following a decline in 2020. In 2021 nuclear generation increased in Africa, Asia, East Europe Russia, and in South America. These increases continued upward trends seen in recent years in those regions. Generation also increased in West and Central Europe, but in this region the overall trend remains downward. Generation declined for the second year running in North America as more reactors in the USA were closed. Figure 1.

Nearly 70 of al l operable reactors are pressurized water reactors PWRs, with all except one of the 34 reactors that have started up between 2017 and 2021 being PWRs. In 2021 the end of year capacity of operable nuclear power plants was 396 GWe, down 1 GWe on 2020. The total capacity of reactors producing electricity in 2021 was 370 GWe, up 1 GWe from 2020. This is the highest ever total capacity of reactors generating electricity in one year. In most years, a small number of operable reactors do not generate electricity . In recent years the figure has been higher , as reactors in Japan await approval to restart following the Fukushima Daiichi accident in 2011. As some Japanese reactors have now restarted, and others have been permanently shut down, the total number of reactors operable, but not generating, has gradually reduced. Figure 3.

In 2021 the global average capacity factor was 82.4, up from 80.3 in 2020. This continues the trend of high global capacity factors seen since 2000. Figure 4. Global average capacity factor Figure 5. Capacity factor by reactor type Capacity factors for different reactor types in 2021 were broadly consistent with those achieved in the previous five years.

Figure 6. Capacity factor by region There is no age-related decline in nuclear reactor performance. The mean capacity factor for reactors over the last five years shows no significant overall variation with age. Improvements in average global capacity factors have been achieved in reactors of all ages, not just new reactors of more advanced designs. Figure 7.

The spread of capacity factors in 2021 is broad ly similar to the average of the previous five years. Just over two-thirds of reactors have a capacity factor greater than 75. Figure 8.

This continues recent trends, where series build and the retention of skil ls through ongoing new build programmes have helped contribute to more rapid construction times.

Figure 12 shows the operational status of reactors constructed since 1986. Most reactors under construction today started construction in the last ten years. The smal l number that have taken longer are either pilot plants, first -of -a-kind FOAK reactors, or projects where construction was suspended b efore being restarted. In the case of Khmelnitski 34, Ukraine, two reactors that started construction in 1986 and 1987, there have been attempts to restart construction, but no active progress since 1990. Figure 11.

Operational status of reactors with construction starts since 1985 as of 1 January 2022 Figure 13 shows the total capacity of reactors of different ages operating in any one year since 1970. As time passes those reactors that remain in operation move into the next category every ten years. The total capacity of reactors that have been in operation for less than 10 years declined from around 1990, as the pace of new reactor start-ups slowed. With increased construction and subsequent commissioning of reactors in recent years the total capacity of reactors that have been in operation for less than 10 years has started to increase again.
