Electricity produced from nuclear power in Great Britain decreased to 42 terawatt-hours in 2021 from over 80 terawatt-hours in the early 2000s. Although the majority of the existing nuclear power plants will reach the end of their life cycle in the 2020s, the construction of two nuclear reactors has been planned in the United Kingdom in 2022.
