Trillo Nuclear Power Plant is a nuclear power station in Spain.

It consists of one pressurized water reactor (PWR) of 1066 MWe. Construction of unit one began in 1979, and first criticality was on 14 May 1988.

A planned second identical unit was cancelled soon after construction began following a change of government in 1983.[ citation needed ]
