China has nearly tripled its nuclear capacity in 10 years

1. Even this late in the game, the greatest nuclear building success ever was that of the United States.

We built more than 100 nuclear reactors in less than 25 years while providing some of the lowest priced electricity in the industrial world.

Many of those reactors, many built by engineers who were very familiar with, and indeed even reliant on, slide rules continue to operate today.

Of course, we have lots and lots and lots and lots of chanting antinukes around to tell us that what has already happened is impossible, and that nuclear energy is "too expensive" but climate change leaving a planet in flames, and millions of deaths each year from air pollution aren't "too expensive."

I do believe that China will surpass the US record ultimately. Their reactor production infrastructure is functioning highly and they are also designing and building innovative reactor types.
