The Maanshan Nuclear Power Plant (Chinese: 馬鞍山核能發電廠; pinyin: Mǎ'ānshān Hénéng Fādiànchǎng or 核三; Hésān) is a nuclear power plant located near South Bay, Hengchun, Pingtung County, Taiwan. The plant is Taiwan's third nuclear power plant and second-largest in generation capacity.
Nuclear power in Taiwan accounts for 2,945 MWe of capacity by means of 1 active plant and 2 reactors. In 2015, before the closure of 3 reactors, they made up around 8.1% of its national primary energy consumption, and 19% of its electricity generation.
This page is a list of power stations in the Republic of China (Taiwan) that are publicly or privately owned. Non-renewable power stations are those that run on coal, fuel oils, nuclear power, and natural gas, while renewable power stations run on fuel sources such as biomass, geothermal heat, moving water, solar rays, tides, waves and the wind.
As of May 2023, there are 436 operable nuclear power reactors worldwide. This table lists all currently operational power stations. Some of these may have reactors under construction, but only current net capacity is listed.
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.
The Fourth Nuclear Power Plant was first proposed in 1978, [2] and Taipower selected the ABWR in 1996 after a competitive bidding process. [3] The reactor is designed by General Electric, but is supported by Hitachi, Shimizu Corporation, Toshiba, and other American, Taiwanese, and other Chinese and international companies.
This is a list of all the commercial nuclear reactors in the world, sorted by country, with operational status. The list only includes civilian nuclear power reactors used to generate electricity for a power grid.
The Jinshan Nuclear Power Plant or Chin Shan Nuclear Power Plant [3] (金山核能發電廠), First Nuclear Power Plant (第一核能發電廠 or 核一), is a nuclear power plant being decommissioned in Shimen District, New Taipei, Taiwan.
