Niederaichbach nuclear power station
Niederaichbach, Germany
Niederaichbach Nuclear Power Plant (German: Kernkraftwerk Niederaichbach (KKN)) was a German nuclear plant in Niederaichbach, Bavaria. The plant consisted of one heavy water gas cooled (HWGC) reactor with a gross capacity of 106 MWe. Safety and maintenance issues caused the reactor to be decommissioned after only a year and a half in operation. It was the first nuclear plant in Europe to be completely decommissioned, with the final work being completed in autumn 1995. Although located at the same location as the Isar Nuclear Power Plant, the Niederaichbach plant used a different reactor type and was decommissioned five years before construction of the Isar plant was completed.
