About this plant

The Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project is a proposed nuclear power station planned for the Ratnagiri district of Maharashtra, India. The project envisages six EPR reactors totalling about 9,900 MW, which would make it one of the largest nuclear stations in the world if built. Construction has not begun, and the figure shown reflects the announced planned capacity rather than operating capacity.
