Nearest tracked nuclear sites
| Site | Country | Distance | Operating GW gross |
|---|---|---|---|

| Limerick nuclear power plant | United States | 107 km | 2.4 |
| Peach Bottom nuclear power plant | United States | 148 km | 2.8 |
How these are worked out: ranks use gross operating capacity; ages count from the start-up year on record, as on the age page; build times run from construction start to grid connection, as on the build-times page; ratings are the tracker's net and design net capacity, as on the uprates page. Distances are straight-line between exact positions, so a site with only an approximate position gets none. A unit missing a date or a rating is left out of the figure that needs it.
