## What is Nuclear Power Plants?

Check out this ad-free map of nuclear power plants worldwide and get an idea of how many there are already.

The following arithmetic made me create this app:
Scientists keep claiming that a worst-case scenario will happen only every 10,000 years. Sounds acceptable? It is an estimate for one nuclear power plant - but there are about 400 worldwide. Fukushima could have been anticipated by doing this calculation: 1986 + (10,000 / 400) = 2011. Who can say now it has been unpredictable?

Accidents that were classified on the INES scale appear as colored circles. White = no events; up to dark red = catastrophy.

Each location provides information about
• start of operation, year of planned shutdown
• gross output
• in-depth information on mobile wikipedia page
• news (wikipedia page history)
• overview of recent wikipedia changes
• worst recorded event (INES scale)
• type of reactor
• circle with configurable radius can be drawn around each plant

Thanks to Chris, CCM and especially my brother Ralf for helping me compiling the data.

### 4/5 — Nice but old.

*2024-03-15*

I love this app, I use it to check nuclear power plant info and if there is one near me when I go on a trip, however a lot of the info is atlest 10 years old and It hasn’t been updated in 7 yrs, sad it was forgotten about but it’s still a useful quick tool.

### 5/5 — Obacht

*2023-10-29*

Diese tickenden Zeitbomben stehen überall.
Dank der App schnell zu finden und dank den Infos auch gut einzuordnen 

D A N K E

### 4/5 — A language setting enhancement please?

*2023-01-11*

A language setting enhancement please?

### 3/5 — Gut gemachte App

*2021-05-23*

Hervorzuheben ist die Option Perimeter, mit Hilfe welcher man sehr gut überblicken kann, in welcher Region man weit weg von AKWs ist. Das einzige was mir fehlt, ist eine Timeline wann welches AKW gebaut und abgeschaltet wird. Läuft auch auf iOS 14.5.1 Der Berliner Experimentier-Reaktor (BER II) ist mit aufgeführt, er wurde von 1973 bis 2019 genutzt.

### 5/5 — Locations

*2020-09-26*

This is so amazing!! I never knew there were sooooo many plants. Europe has the most I believe. 🥵

### 4/5 — Informative

*2020-09-03*

It’s really informative but it’s kinda inaccurate because the Seabrook Power plant shut down started in 2019.

### 4/5 — Ganz gut

*2016-03-05*

Ich finde es gut (war sehr sinnvoll für mein Atomkraftwerk-Referat) 
Nur fände ich es gut wenn man dann auch kurz sehen könnte was die "Probleme" waren (kann sein dass ich das übersehen habe).
Aber im vollen und ganzen gut gelungen

### 5/5 — Top App

*2016-03-04*

Gute Idee , gute Umsetzung ... Sehr informativ ....:)

### 1/5 — Israel nuke power

*2016-03-04*

Where's Israelis nuke power stations?

### 5/5 — Sehr gut!

*2015-05-11*

Danke an die Entwickler für die Fleißarbeit.
