Nuclear Power Map
Of the 376,000 MW of nuclear power generated in the world, the following places could be directly affected by earthquakes and the resultant effects (aftershocks, tsnuamis etc).
Japan(47,000 MW), West Coast of USA(~15,000 MW), South Korea (18,000 MW), Mexico (1,300 MW), Taiwan (4,900 MW), East Cost of China (10,000 MW)
That accounts to over 25% of the world's nuclear energy in earthquake/tsnuami prone areas.
One thing for certain is that many questions will be raised following this tragedy.
