Hello、munejyuka。

It's just a coincidence、I saw an article about nuclear power plants.、単純に

世界中の原子力発電所の数はどのくらいあるのか？

が気になりました。

There have been accidents in Japan.、There are some things that are intentionally stopped.、I looked into what's going on in the world。

世界の原子力発電の状況は？

世界ではどのくらいの数の原子力発電所が稼働しているのか？

２０２１年１月現在で、

世界中で４３４基が稼働している

apparently。

Looking at it by country、It is as follows。

1：America driving 94、Under construction 2、計画２

2：France 56、１、０

3 digits：China 48、１６、２９

4 digits：Japan 33、３、８

5 people：Russia 34、３、１４

6 people：South Korea 24、４、０

７位：Canada 19、０、０

８位：Ukraine 15、２、０

９位：UK 15、２、２

…

１３位：India 22、７、６

日本は数だけでみると、It is ranked 4th in the world。

Personally, I was surprised that France came in second place.。

Neighboring Germany is currently、There are 6 units in operation.、It seems that the country has returned to a move away from nuclear power.。

One of the characteristics is that policies differ from country to country.。

The other thing I notice is、That's the number China is planning.。In the future、We can see the intention to actively utilize nuclear power generation.。

India also has 7 under construction.、We are proactive with 6 units in the planning stages.。

Russia suffered the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident in 1986.、There are also nuclear power plants that are still operating.、Apparently there are plans for 14 units.。

日本の状況を詳しくみてみる

ここで、I would like to take a closer look at the situation in Japan.。

As of January 2021、It appears that nine nuclear power plants are operating in Japan.。

・Two units at Kansai Electric Power's Ohi power plant、高浜発電所で２基

・四国電力の伊方発電所で１基

・九州電力の玄海原子力発電所で２基、川内原子力発電所で２基

の合計９基です。

Reactor installation changes have been approved.、Including those currently applying for compliance with new regulatory standards.、It will probably be the number 33 mentioned above.。

Summary

・２０２１年１月現在で世界中で４３４基の原子力発電所が稼働している

・日本は数だけでみると第４位

・中国、インドは積極的に原子力発電所を推進している

・ロシアも１４基の計画あり

・日本は現在９基が稼働

この結果をみて、Countries and regions where the population is increasing require a lot of electricity.。

It seems that there is a movement to build nuclear power plants in order to secure electricity.。

What needs to be addressed is clear、

使用済み核燃料の処分方法

And、

事故があったときの被害が大きすぎる

I think that means。

At the moment、There is no perfect way to solve this challenge。
We have no choice but to leave it to future technological innovations.。

As we civilians、無事を祈るばかりです！

Please read to the end、Thank you! !!
