At the location of the Nuclear Power Plant Greifswald near Lubmin, five pressurized water reactors of Soviet design with an electric power of 440 MW each were in operation from 1973 to mid-1990:

• KGR-1: 3^rd Dec. 1973 to 18^th Dec. 1990, generated electrical energy: 41 TWh,

• KGR-2: 2^nd Dec. 1974 to 14^th Feb. 1990, generated electrical energy: 40 TWh,

• KGR-3: 6^th Oct. 1977 to 8^th Feb. 1990, generated electrical energy: 36 TWh,

• KGR-4: 22^nd Jul. 1979 to 2^nd Jun. 1990, generated electrical energy: 32 TWh,

• KGR-5: 26^th Mar.1989 to 29^th Nov. 1989, trial operation.

In 1990 three further units of the same power were in operation. Due to the safety deficit compared to western standards the reactors 1 to 5 were shut down in 1990 and the construction of the units 6 to 8 was suspended. The decommissioning work for the plant has started end of June 1995.
