Description

The Country Nuclear Power Profiles (CNPP) provide background information on the status and development of nuclear power programmes of Member States. The CNPP's main objectives are to consolidate information on the nuclear power infrastructure and developments in participating countries, and serve as a resource in effective planning, decision making and implementation of nuclear power programmes that lead to safe and economical operations of nuclear power plants.
The CNPP summarizes organizational and industrial aspects of nuclear power programmes and provides information about the relevant legislative, regulatory and international framework in each country. The descriptive and statistical overview of the overall energy and electricity situation in each country and its nuclear power framework are intended to serve as an integrated source of key background information about nuclear power programmes in the world. Statistical data about nuclear plant operations, energy and electricity use are drawn from national contributions and the IAEA's Power Reactor Information System (PRIS), IAEA's Energy Economic Data Base (EEDB) and World Development Indicators (WDI) of the World Bank.
The CNPP website is updated continuously, and an annual publication is prepared to provide a high-level overview of programmes in participating Member States. Currently, it contains historical country information for 50 countries, including 30 countries currently operating nuclear power plants, and 20 countries with past or planned nuclear power programmes. The CNPP reports are updated based on information voluntarily provided by participating IAEA Member States. Each of the profiles in this publication is self-standing and contains information officially provided by the respective national authorities.
