Nuclear Energy Agency purposes."" NEA currently consists of 33 countries from Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific region. In 2017 Argentina and Romania accessioned to NEA as its most recent members. Together they account for approximately 85% of the world’s installed nuclear capacity. Nuclear power accounts for almost a quarter of the electricity produced in NEA Member countries. The NEA works closely with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna and with the European Commission in Brussels. Within the OECD, there is close co-ordination with the International Energy Agency and the Environment Directorate, as well as contacts with other directorates, as appropriate.
