301 nuclear sites and 779 reactor units worldwide on an interactive globe, with a timeline running from 1954 to today. Every unit has a technical record built from IAEA PRIS, Global Energy Monitor and Wikidata, cross-checked and corrected against primary sources. There's an animated wiki explaining how each reactor family works and a live signals engine that ingests public feeds to detect outages, power changes and regulatory events. Built by a nuclear engineer. Free, bilingual, no signup.
Hi everyone, I'm Fede. I'm a nuclear engineer, and I built Reactor Atlas because the data about my own industry is a mess.
There is no single place where you can see every nuclear reactor in the world with its real status. The IAEA publishes authoritative records inside PDFs. Global Energy Monitor publishes a spreadsheet. Wikipedia has a third version. They contradict each other constantly. While reconciling the main sources I found 31 units whose operating status was wrong in widely used datasets, including two reactors in my own country listed as suspended while they were actually running at around 68% capacity factor.
So this is really a data reconciliation project with a map on top: 301 sites, 779 units, a timeline from 1954, a sourced technical record per unit, an animated wiki on how each reactor family works, and a layer of research reactors.
The part I'm most excited about is newer. It's a signals engine that ingests public feeds (the NRC daily status report, seismic data, grid operators) and derives events by comparing each reading against the previous one. Nobody publishes "unit X tripped". They publish numbers. The event is in the difference.

If you work in energy or data: what would make this genuinely useful to you, rather than just interesting to look at?

Who hunted Reactor Atlas?
Reactor Atlas was hunted by Federico Caccia. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community. See the full all-time top hunters leaderboard to discover who is shaping the Product Hunt ecosystem.
