Page 8 and 24. [1][5], Globally, there have been at least 99 (civilian and military) recorded nuclear power plant accidents from 1952 to 2009 (defined as incidents that either resulted in the loss of human life or more than US$50,000 of property damage, the amount the US federal government uses to define nuclear energy accidents that must be reported), totaling US$20.5 billion in property damages. See also Laka Foundation's list of recent nuclear and radiological incidents in Belgium. Both nuclear accidents represented a turning point in the situation of nuclear energy in France.
