Study of the Establishments Producing Electric Power for the US

Posted on: Monday, 14 January 2008, 12:00 CST

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c79375) has announced the addition of "Nuclear Electric Power Generation in the US" to their offering.

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in operating nuclear powered electric power generation facilities. These facilities use nuclear fuel to generate steam, which in turn is used to power turbines that generate electric power. The establishments in this industry produce electric energy and provide electricity to transmission systems or to electric power distribution systems.

Generating Revenue

No new nuclear power stations have come on line since 1996, however, the volume of electricity produced by nuclear power stations has continued to increase, rising from 780,064 gigawatt hours in 2002 to 787,219 gigawatt hours in 2006 and an expected 794,872 gigawatt hours in 2007. Expanding output reflects the use of power uprates, which involves using more highly enriched fuel to increase output from a nuclear reactor. Power uprates will continue to boost both nuclear generating capacity and nuclear power production over the forecast period.
