poster presentato a Neutrino 2012, 2-9 giugno, Kyoto, Japan Abstract ID. 137 - 2 Geo-neutrinos (i.e. νe from U and Th natural decay chains) have been recently detected both by Kamland and Borexino experiments. The main source of background of such experiments is given by antineutrino produced by nuclear plants. We present an estimate of reactor antineutrino signal all over the world, with particular attention to the sites proposed for the new geo-neutrino experiments. In our calculation we take into account the most updated data on Thermal Power for each nuclear plant and on reactor νe spectra. A preliminary map of reactor neutrinos signal is visible at http://www.fe.infn.it/∼ricci/mappe.pdf.
