Thermal efficiency of nuclear power stations in the United Kingdom (UK) 2010-2019

Published by Statista Research Department, Sep 6, 2021
Thermal efficiency of nuclear power stations oscillated over the years in the United Kingdom. Between 2010 and 2019, figures decreased by roughly two percent, peaking at 40 percent in 2016 and 2017. Thermal efficiency is the efficiency with which heat energy contained in fuel is converted into electrical energy. In 2019, nuclear power stations had a thermal efficiency of 36.5 percent, which means that 36.5 percent of the energy in nuclear power was converted to electricity.
