Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant
Breakdown
In 2019 Qinshan 1 was upgraded and uprated to 350 MWe (net) from its original output power of 300 MWe. Although Fangjiashan Nuclear Power Plant is technically a separate entity from Qinshan, the World Nuclear Association considers it to essentially be an extension of the Qinshan plant due to its extreme proximity and the fact that the original two reactors built at Fangjiashan were initially intended to be built at Qinshan phase IV (which is no longer planned).
