Why haven't any nuclear reactors been constructed in the United States since 1996?
Most nuclear reactors started being built in 1974. Changing economics and the Three Mile Island accident most planned projects were canceled. The Three Mile Island accident was a partial nuclear meltdown. Over 100 planned nuclear power reactors were canceled. Most of those were already under construction. George W. Bush's Nuclear Power 2010 Program was an effort to start build nuclear reactors again. But the 2010 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster the majority of planned projects were canceled.There are a few new nuclear projects. The construction of the second unit at Watts Bar Nuclear Generating Station in Tennessee was 80% complete in the 1980s but construction was abandoned due to a decrease in power demand. In 2007 construction was approved to continue and construction was finally finished in 2015.In March 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved construction plans for Unit 2 and 3 at the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Generating Station. Unit 2 began construction in March 2013 and Unit 3 began in November of the same year..In February 2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved construction plans for Unit 3 and 4 at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. Like the Summer plant, Unit 3 began construction in March 2013 and Unit 4 began in November.

How many nuclear power reactors are there in India?
See the list in link belowThere are six nuclear power stations in India, with a total of seventeen nuclear reactors in them. There are also six research and production reactors, but such reactors are not usually included in counts of reactors in a country because they are small and do not typically put power on the electric grid._______________________________________________________An updated AnswerThere are 21 operating power reactors in India (with total electric power 5308 MW) and 6 nuclear power reactors under construction (with total electric power 3907 MW) per the statistics of the International Atomic Energy Agency as of April 2004.
