The nuclear power plant Prevlaka should the Yugoslav Prevlaka on the river Sava (today Croatia apply). The plans were halted after the Chernobyl disaster and disputes in the country.

history

The energy associations of Slovenia and Croatia merged in 1981 and started planning the construction of a nuclear power plant with 1000 to 1200 MW in Prevlaka. The plant was part of a project that included the planning for five nuclear power plants. It was planned that construction should start in 1985, the nuclear power plant should be completed in 1992. On June 22, 1984, the tender for the construction of the nuclear power plant was started. It was to become the second nuclear power plant in Yugoslavia after the Krško nuclear power plant.

It was planned to build a 1000 MW reactor of the same type as in the Krško nuclear power plant. In 1986, Yugoslavia began to look for foreign partners for loans to finance the four new nuclear power plants. However, environmental and political factors made this program unattractive in the late 1980s. Another factor was the resulting increase in foreign debt.

Some politicians feared that the construction of new nuclear power plants could lead to a dispute between East and West. The plant in Krško and the planned plant in Prevlaka were financed by Western partners, while three other plants in Serbia, Macedonia and Montenegro were financed by the Soviet Union .

After the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in 1986 , the Croatian government removed the construction of the nuclear power plant from the regional plan from 1986 to 1990. Another reason is that there were regional disputes. Therefore, the construction was postponed to the 1990s. It was later discussed whether a dam system on the Drina River and lignite from domestic reserves could replace nuclear power.
