China is the current king of new nuclear power construction. The US is attempting to launch a comeback, but its still unknown whether that will be successful.

China has 21 nuclear reactors under construction which will have a capacity for generating more than 21 gigawatts of electricity, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency. That is two and a half times more nuclear reactors under construction than any other country.

I love that China is not planning to power all future demand with more coal and gas.

      Overall, probably cheaper, as it requires less tax to help pay for the cost of nuclear infrastructure.
