Nuclear power stations are a one off build. I can’t think of two or more identical builds.

- defrost 3y agoAre you talking stations (size of ground pads, number of toilets | parking bays) or reactors ? ( Hydro electric dams are largely "one off builds" - yet many share common turbine units and families ) Does that include the 25 reactors in South Korea that come from families such as OPR-1000 (basic), OPR-1000 (improved), APR-1400, etc? https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profiles/countries-o-s/south-korea.aspx https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profil... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPR-1000 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPR-1000 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APR-1400 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APR-1400
