Plants are shown across all statuses: active (54), restart pending (3), in development (27) and decommissioned (41) , across 39 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico . Explore each plant’s location, owner, status, net capacity in megawatts (MW), number of reactors, and construction cost. Together, the 54 active nuclear plants mapped here have a combined net summer capacity of about 96,853 MW (~97 GW) . The in-development set spans everything from utility-scale projects holding NRC construction permits
