Around 10% of the world's electricity is generated by about 450 nuclear power reactors. About 50 more reactors are under construction, equivalent to about 15% of existing capacity. In 2018 nuclear plants supplied 2563 TWh of electricity, up from 2503 TWh in 2017.

Explanation:

Nuclear technology uses the energy released by splitting the atoms of certain elements. It was first developed in the 1940s, and during the Second World War research initially focused on producing bombs. In the 1950s attention turned to the peaceful use of nuclear fission, controlling it for power generation.

Civil nuclear power can now boast more than 17,000 reactor years of experience, and nuclear power plants are operational in 30 countries worldwide. In fact, through regional transmission grids, many more countries depend in part on nuclear-generated power; Italy and Denmark, for example, get almost 10% of their electricity from imported nuclear power.
