U.S. Nuclear Capacity Factors

Nuclear utilization has increased
substantially over the past 25 years

Since 2000, nuclear utilization has
been at or close to 90%

It is unlikely that utilization can
increase further given refueling   
and maintenance requirements

At least 40 new units are needed
just to maintain current share

No new plant additions are
forecasted in the next 10 years

Current nuclear generating
infrastructure is aging

By 2030, the average age of nuclear                       
infrastructure will be 50 years old
