Japan Power Demonstration Reactor nuclear power plant

Japan Power Demonstration Reactor nuclear power plant is a nuclear site in Japan with 1 unit on record. None is currently operating.

Operating1Mothballed1Retired3circle area ∝ site capacitydashed = approximate positionThis plant’s position is approximate in the source data, so it may be several kilometres from where it is drawn. Coastlines, borders and lakes: Natural Earth (1:10 million, public domain), which is generalised, so a coastal plant can sit a couple of kilometres off its true shoreline. Site positions: Global Nuclear Power Tracker.

Japan Power Demonstration Reactor nuclear power plant in context

The one unit with both construction and grid dates on record took 2.9 years from construction start to grid connection; the median across all reactors connected in the 1960s is 5.0 years.

How these are worked out: ranks use gross operating capacity; ages count from the start-up year on record, as on the age page; build times run from construction start to grid connection, as on the build-times page; ratings are the tracker's net and design net capacity, as on the uprates page. Distances are straight-line between exact positions, so a site with only an approximate position gets none. A unit missing a date or a rating is left out of the figure that needs it.
