Yes US has not build nuclear plants and so did European countries like UK. Things have changed. The French experiment has shown that it can be safe. Beside spiraling cost of fossil fuels have redefined economic viability. So the US and UK are going big time into nuclear capacity creation.
Out of the 35 new nuclear power plants under construction in the world, Asia accounts for 24 of these. While China is building six new nuclear power plants to get 5,222 MW power for its grid, India too is building six such plants which would add 2910 MW of to its grid.
