Cheonji Nuclear Power Plant
Yeongdeok County, South Korea
The Cheonji Nuclear Power Plant is a planned South Korean nuclear power plant located in rural Yeongdeok County. Cheonji would be the first plant to implement the uprated APR+ design with 1500MWe output. The first unit, Cheonji-1, was scheduled to enter commercial operation in 2026, with the sister unit Cheonji-2 to follow in 2027. However, in the wake of the election of Moon Jae-in, who campaigned on an anti-nuclear platform, plans to acquire the land and proceed with license application were put on hold in 2017. The two units are, as of 2023, scheduled to be completed 2028 and 2029, respectively.
