Ядерна енергетика України
У грудні 1991 р. підприємства атомної енергетики були об'єднані у концерн "Укратоменергопром", який у січні 1993 було реорганізовано у Державний комітет України з використання ядерної енергії - Держкоматом України.
21 жовтня 1993 р. Верховна Рада України скасувала дію мораторію. Було відновлено роботи на 6-му блоці Запорізької АЕС, 4-му блоці Рівненської та 2-му -Хмельницької АЕС. У жовтні 1995 р. відбувся енергетичний пуск 6-го блоку Запорізької АЕС. Запорізька атомна станція із встановленою потужністю 6 млн кВт стала найбільшою в Європі. 17 жовтня 1996 р. постановою Кабінету Міністрів №1268 було створено державне підприємство «Національна атомна енерго-генеруюча компанія "Енергоатом". Чорнобильська АЕС — перша українська атомна електростанція, експлуатацію якої припинено до закінчення проектного ресурсу. Нині три блоки станції з реакторами РБМК-1000 перебувають у стадії зняття з експлуатації, зокрема, 2-й енергоблок - з 1991 р. після пожежі у машинному залі, 1-й енергоблок - з 1996 р. за рішенням українського уряду, 3-й блок зупинено наприкінці 2000 р.
Постановою Уряду України від 25 квітня 2001 р. Чорнобильську АЕС виведено зі складу НАЕК "Енергоатом". Їй надано статус державного спеціалізованого підприємства. Для вирішення питань працевлаштування вивільненого персоналу Чорнобильської АЕС, а також з метою підвищення ефективності управління якістю та ефективністю ремонтних робіт, що проводяться на атомних електростанціях, у листопаді 2000 р. створено підприємство "Атомремонтсервіс", яке увійшло до складу Компанії.
З квітня 1999 р. уведено в промислову експлуатацію Олександрівську ГЕС з потужністю 2,5 МВт — частину Південноукраїнського енергетичного комплексу.
У 2003 р. планується добудувати Ташлицьку ГАЕС, готовність двох агрегатів якої оцінюється у 80 відсотків. На державному рівні здійснюються заходи з добудови двох енергоблоків на Рівненській та Хмельницькій АЕС, готовність яких - 85-90 відсотків.
У липні 2001 р. Запорізька АЕС отримала ліцензію на введення в дослідно-промислову експлуатацію перших трьох контейнерів сухого сховища відпрацьованого ядерного палива (ССВЯП). Нині проводиться робота з переведення сховища у промислову експлуатацію.
У липні 2002 р. Південно-Українська АЕС першою серед українських атомних електростанцій отримала ліцензію Держатомрегулювання на експлуатацію ядерних установок. Серпень - жовтень 2004 р. Завершення спорудження та енергетичний пуск другого Хмельницького та четвертого Рівненського енергоблоків. На сьогодні в експлуатації на АЕС перебуває 15 енергоблоків, з них 13 - з реакторами типу ВВЕР-1000, 2 - ВВЕР-440.
За кількістю реакторів та їх сумарною потужністю Україна посідає восьме місце у світі та п'яте в Європі.
При наявності в Україні п’яти атомних електростанцій потужністю 11800 МВт (на 01.01.2000), уран відіграє значну роль у забезпеченні країни електроенергією. Його частка у виробництві електроенергії, в порівнянні з іншими енергоносіями, постійно зростає. Так у 2000 р. АЕС виробили 45,1% електроенергії і майже зрівнялись з часткою ТЕС, на яких 19 млн. кВт потужностей із 36 вимагають ремонту чи реконструкції.
Nuclear power
Nuclear power is the use of sustained nuclear fission to generate heat and electricity. Nuclear power plants provide about 6% of the world's energy and 13–14% of the world's electricity, with the U.S., France, and Japan together accounting for about 50% of nuclear generated electricity. In 2007, the IAEA reported there were 439 nuclear power reactors in operation in the world, operating in 31 countries. Also, more than 150 naval vessels using nuclear propulsion have been built.
There is an ongoing debate about the use of nuclear energy. Proponents, such as the World Nuclear Association and IAEA, contend that nuclear power is a sustainable energy source that reduces carbon emissions. Opponents, such as Greenpeace International and NIRS, believe that nuclear power poses many threats to people and the environment.
Nuclear power plant accidents include the Chernobyl disaster (1986), Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster (2011), and the Three Mile Island accident (1979). There have also been some nuclear-powered submarine mishaps. However, the safety record of nuclear power is good when compared with many other energy technologies. Research into safety improvements is continuing and nuclear fusion may be used in the future.
China has 25 nuclear power reactors under construction, with plans to build many more, while in the US the licenses of almost half its reactors have been extended to 60 years, and plans to build another dozen are under serious consideration. However, Japan's 2011Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster prompted a rethink of nuclear energy policy in many countries. Germany decided to close all its reactors by 2022, and Italy has banned nuclear power. Following Fukushima, the International Energy Agency halved its estimate of additional nuclear generating capacity to be built by 2035.
