Niederaichbach, Germany
The 579th largest power station in the world
Isar I and Isar II were two nuclear power plants situated on the Isar river, 14 kilometres from Landshut, between Essenbach and Niederaichbach in Bavaria, Germany. Isar I is a boiling water reactor which began operation in 1979 and was permanently shut down in 2011 as a result of the Fukushima disaster in Japan. It had a nameplate capacity of 912MWe. Isar II is a Konvoi-type pressurized water reactor which began operation in 1988 and has a nameplate capacity of 1485MWe. As part of the country's nuclear power phase-out, Isar II was taken out of service on 15 April 2023, being among the last 3 reactors in Germany still operating at this time.
