Map of US Nuclear Sites
Nuclear power is a vital part of the United States’ energy strategy, providing about 20% of the nation’s electricity. The U.S. operates the largest fleet of commercial nuclear reactors in the world. These reactors are a key component of efforts to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change. Projects such as the construction of new reactors and the development of advanced nuclear technologies like small modular reactors aim to enhance the sector’s efficiency and safety. However, the industry faces challenges, including high costs, regulatory hurdles, and public concerns over safety and radioactive waste management. Despite these obstacles, nuclear power remains essential for a diverse and reliable energy mix. Find out where the country’s nuclear sites are located, and what goes on at each of them, on our interactive map of US nuclear sites.
Quick Guide to using the Map of US Nuclear Sites
MAP – Click and drag to move the map around. Hold Ctrl and use the mouse wheel to zoom in or out. Alternatively use the zoom buttons in the top right corner.
POINTS – Points are coloured based on the purpose of the nuclear site.
COUNTER – The counter in the top left displays the number of nuclear sites under each purpose. Clicking on a specific counter lets you see only sites that fall within that category.
POPUPS – Hovering over a specific point on the map will show you a popup containing additional information about the site.
