Explanation
The Tarapur Atomic Power Station (TAPS), located in Palghar, Maharashtra, is the oldest nuclear power plant in India. It commenced its commercial operations on October 28, 1969. It was established as part of a bilateral agreement between India and the United States, with technical assistance provided by General Electric.
- Kakrapar Atomic Power Station (Gujarat): Commenced operations in 1993.
- Kaiga Generating Station (Karnataka): Commenced operations in 2000.
- Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant (Tamil Nadu): Commenced operations in 2013 (Unit 1), though the project was initiated much later than Tarapur.
Tarapur remains a significant milestone in India's nuclear energy program, marking the beginning of commercial nuclear power generation in the country.
