About this project

150 MW nuclear facility at Pulmoddai, Sri Lanka at announced stage. Start year: 2034. Compiled from the Global Energy Monitor tracker; financial terms are not published and must be obtained from the developer. [Published 12 Sep 2026 from the Global Nuclear Power Tracker, August 2026 release, one record per unit.]

Where this sits in the catalogue

This is one of 2 units recorded at this site, alongside Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 2. Each is held as its own record because each is separately reported. By capacity this is the 1st largest of the 2 nuclear records we hold in Sri Lanka. The country has 236 records in total across every technology. A further 1 catalogued project sits within 25 km of it. See every record in Sri Lanka or find it on the map.

Investment readiness

What a financier can currently see about this project without asking a question. Not a view on the project itself.

No score is shown, because the public record carries too little to score one honestly. A low band here would describe what we do not know rather than anything about the project. The dimensions below are what the sources actually evidence, and the gaps are what a developer can close in a minute by claiming the record.

Questions about Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1

How big is Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1?+

Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1 is recorded at 150 MW of nuclear capacity in Pulmoddai, Sri Lanka. That figure is the one its source publishes, not an estimate by Solandor.

Where is Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1?+

Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1 is in Pulmoddai, Sri Lanka, at 8.9483, 80.9782. The coordinates are published by the source, so the location on the map is the site itself rather than a town centre standing in for it.

Is Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1 operating?+

Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1 is recorded at concept stage in Sri Lanka. Stage comes from the source dataset and is re-checked against it; the page shows the date of the last check, so you can see how current that is.

Where does Solandor's information about Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1 come from?+

This record is drawn from Global Nuclear Power Tracker, Global Energy Monitor, published at https://globalenergymonitor.org/projects/global-nuclear-power-tracker/. Solandor is a free public catalogue of clean energy projects and their funders; every field it holds is shown, including the ones the source leaves empty. Tell us if anything is wrong and we will correct it, and if you are Sri Lanka nuclear power plant 1 and would rather not be listed at all, say so and we will remove it.
