About This Site
Written by NukeWorker from public records: facts that do not change. Operator, status and capacity come from the live data elsewhere on this page. Sources: World Nuclear Association: nuclear power in the Philippines; Christian Science Monitor, 23 July 1993.
The Bataan Nuclear Power Plant at Napot Point, Morong, was the first nuclear power plant built in the Philippines: a single 621 MWe Westinghouse pressurized water reactor ordered after the 1973 oil crisis. Construction began in July 1976 and was completed in 1984.
