The Hanul nuclear power plant (until 2013: Uljin nuclear power plant) near Uljin in the Gyeongsangbuk-do province in South Korea consists of a total of six blocks with pressurized water reactors . Two more blocks are under construction.
Reactors
Hanul-1 has a net electrical output of 966 MWe and a gross output of 1008 MWe, it went into operation in 1988. The net electrical output of Unit 2 is 967 MWe, the gross output 1012 MWe; Commissioning was in 1989. Hanul-3 has a net output of 997 MWe and a gross output of 1048 MWe and was commissioned in 1998. The net electrical output of unit 4 is 999 MWe, the gross output 1053 MWe; the commissioning took place in 1999. Hanul 5 and 6 each have a nominal output of 105 MWe and 1050 MWe, the commissioning took place in 2004 and 2005.
The Hanul-6 reactor is the youngest South Korean reactor block. The net electrical output of the entire power plant is 5924 MW. This makes the plant one of the largest nuclear power plants on earth.
Two reactors are currently planned, each with an electrical output of 1340 MW net (1400 MW gross). Construction of the first new reactor began on July 10, 2012. The start of operations is planned for 2017. The second block follows one year later. The cost is estimated at around 6 billion US dollars.
Data of the reactor blocks
The Hanul nuclear power plant has a total of six active units . The service life of the reactors is estimated at an average of 40 years each, so that the first is expected to be shut down in 2028.
