How many nuclear power plants have melted down?

Short answer: 2 More details: There have only been two full meltdowns, both in Ukraine (Prypait and Chernobyl). These were due to inadequate safety systems, as the USSR didn't exactly care about the safety of it's citizens. There have, however, been many partial meltdowns. These are usually due to one of the following: • Simultaneous human and machine error (neither the machines nor the technicians noticed a problem). • Massive human error (Human error so bad, the machines were incapacitated and couldn't detect the human error. When adequate safety systems are in place (as they are in every operational power plant today as required by both the UN and the EU), on the off chance that something goes wrong, it can be fixed hours before anybody is exposed to radioactive material. Nuclear power is the safest non-renewable method of power production, and safer than every renewable method except for solar. It is also extremely cost effective, costing less in maintenance and fuel than coal, oil, gas, hydro, wind, tidal, and solar, and the same price as geothermal (but quicker and on a larger scale).


The nuclear accident at Chernobyl was than the accident at Three Mile Island.?

The Three Mile Island incident in 1979 was a partial meltdown resulting from equipment malfunctions and operator errors, with no immediate fatalities and limited off-site impact.
