Nuclear power plant Brunsbüttel ( German: Kernkraftwerk Brunsbüttel ) - a nuclear power plant in Germany with a capacity of 806 MW. The plant is located in the city of Brunsbüttel in the Dietmarschen district , Schleswig-Holstein . The nuclear power plant was built by the manufacturer Kraftwerk Union and operated by Kernkraftwerk Brunsbüttel GmbH & Co. OHG. NPP owners are Vattenfall Europe Nuclear Energy GmbH (66.7%) and E.ON Kernkraft (33.3%). NPP is one of the most prone to failures in Germany [1] . The nuclear power plant has not been operating since July 2007, and at the end of 2011 , the Ministry of Ecology decided to close it forever [2] .

A boiling nuclear reactor (BWR, German: Siedewasserreaktor , SWR) of the SWR-69 type ( 1969 design) was operating at the nuclear power plant. The design of the reactor is almost the same with the designs of the three reactors of other German nuclear power plants (the first blocks of the Philippsburg and Isar nuclear power plants ) and the Austrian Zwendendorf nuclear power plant . The latter was completed, but was never exploited by the decision of a popular referendum [3] . The Krummel reactor is of a similar design, but much more powerful (1402 MW) and modified.
