List of nuclear reactors
This is an annotated list of all the nuclear reactors in the world, sorted by country, with operational status. The list includes military, commercial and research reactors, excludes nuclear marine propulsion reactors, except those at land installations.
- This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.

Australia
Research reactors
- High Flux Australian Reactor, 10 MWt DIDO class reactor), Lucas Heights, New South Wales, produced patient nuclear medicine doses (approx half a million a year) for the diagnosis and treatment of major diseases such as cancer and heart disease. It first went critical on 26 January 1958, was shut down in January 2007[10] and is currently under a care and maintenance program [11]
- MOATA, 100kWt Argonaut class reactor, now permanently shut down.
- Open-pool Australian lightwater reactor, 20 MWt, a replacement for HIFAR supplied by INVAP of Argentina. This facility first went critical at 11.25pm on 12 August 2006[12] and achieved full power for the first time on 3 November 2006.

Serbia
Research reactors
- Vinca Nuclear Institute, Vinča
- RA - Reaktor A (1956–2002) - 6.5 MW heavy water moderated and cooled research reactor
- RB - Reaktor B (1958-...) - At the very beginning the RB reactor was designed and constructed as an unreflected zero power heavy water - natural uranium critical assembly. First criticality was reached in April 1958. Later, the 2% enriched metal uranium fuel and 80% enriched UO2 fuel were obtained and used in the reactor core. Modifications of the reactor control, safety and dosimetry systems (1960, 1976, 1988) converted the RB critical assembly to a flexible heavy water reflected experimental reactor with 1 W nominal power, operable up to 50 W. Several coupled fast-thermal systems were designed and constructed at RB reactor in the early 1990s, for the research in fast reactors physics.

Switzerland
As of 8 December 2014, the Swiss parliament has voted to limit the operational life-time of Beznau I & II to no more than 60 years, and to enshrine a ban of constructing new reactors in the Constitution. However, this decision still has to pass the Council of States and it is likely that a referendum will be taken against such amendment. In addition, an Initiative of limiting the life-span of all nuclear reactors to 45 years will have to be voted upon the Swiss, irrespective of whether the legislature will actually enforce the constitutional amendment or not.[36]
