Nearly two months after Japan’s nuclear crisis began, the head of Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO) has finally stepped down and the company posted a $15 billion loss for the year. New details have also emerged, showing three of the reactors at the Fukushima plant likely suffered partial meltdowns. 6park.com

The disaster in Japan has major implications for the U.S., the world’s largest producer of nuclear energy, especially since the crippled Fukushima plant shares the same design as other plants in the U.S. 6park.com

In the East, China is on the verge of becoming a major player in the nuclear field with about 27 plants currently under construction. In all, there are 442 nuclear power stations in the world and 16 countries currently have 65 plants under construction. 6park.com

We’ve put together a list of the world’s largest nuclear stations by output capacity. Our rankings are based on the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) data on megawatts per hour (MWh) produced by active nuclear reactors in 2010. 6park.com

Located 170 miles north of Tokyo, Fukushima Daiichi was the world’s 10th largest nuclear station before Japan’s catastrophic earthquake and tsunami. 6park.com

The plant started operations in 1971 and has six nuclear reactors, which were badly damaged on March 11. Tepco had planned two more reactors at the site, but the company now plans to abandon these and scrap the site entirely, once a safe shutdown has been achieved. 6park.com

Most of the reactors are old boiling water reactors (BWR) based on a GE design. Even before the latest disaster, TEPCO had been criticized for failing to meet emergency standards at the plant. In February, Tepco admitted to the Japanese nuclear safety agency that it had submitted false inspection and safety reports. 6park.com

9. Oi 4,710 MWh (Fukui prefecture, Japan)

6park.com

The Oi nuclear power plant in Fukui prefecture, southwest of Tokyo, is owned by Kansai Electric Power Company (KEPCO), which is one of Japan’s largest utilities. The plant houses four nuclear reactors that each generate over 1,000 megawatts of power per hour.KEPCO has come under fire in the past for incidents at its nuclear plants. In 2004, five employees were killed at its Mihama nuclear plant from a burst of steam, which was due to neglected safety checks. In 2006, two employees were also inju 6park.com

Bruce Power Generating Station is the largest nuclear power plant in North America.The plant takes up 2,300 acres near Lake Huron in Ontario. It has eight nuclear reactors on site, but only six are operational. The company is on track to restart the other two reactors by 2012, adding another 1,500 megawatts of power to the station.Once all eight are operational, the station will become the world’s second largest nuclear power plant by capacity. 6park.com

Located in Nord, France near the famous towns of Calais and Dunkirk, the Gravelines plant uses water from the English Channel for cooling. The six reactors came online between 1980 and 1984 and the plant recently completed quite a milestone. It generated its 1000 billionth kilowatt hour of energy.Local fish farmers use the water that carries waste heat from the plant to help raise European sea bass and other fish. The warm water helps the fish grow faster. 6park.com
