The US currently has one AP1000 I believe and one under construction (see Vogtle 3&4). Other countries are building them. China for example has AP1000's and CAP1000's/CAP1400's (their modified version of the AP1000) in use and being built.

The AP1000 design is a generation III+ reactor which is safer than 99% of the existing plants in the U.S.
