Finland would have had one of the highest - or the highest - nuclear electricity production in the world pro person i.e. ca 7,050 kWh/person (45 %) in 2009, if the new reactor were ready in 2009 as scheduled. In 2009 other nuclear electricity production were (kWh/person) e.g.
France 6,371, Sweden 5,382, USA 2,699, Japan 2,198 and UK 1,120.

In Olkiluoto a new 1,600MWe European Pressurized Water Reactor was scheduled to handover in 2009. The nuclear capacity was 2,671 MW in 1.1.2006. [1] Combined capacity will be 4,271 MW. Increase of nuclear electricity will be 60 % giving 7,050 kWh/person (45 %) in 2009 if the reactor were ready.

Areva/Siemens estimate the start in 2013 i.e. the construction would be 8 years (2005-2013) instead of 4 years (2005-2009).

* Other RE is waterpower, solar and geothermal electricity and wind power until 2008
* Non RE use = use – production of renewable electricity
* RE % = (production of RE / use) * 100 % Note: European Union calculates the share of renewable energies in gross electrical consumption.
