The Crimean Atomic Energy Station (Ukrainian: Кримська АЕС,Russian: Крымская АЭС) is an abandoned and unfinished nuclear power plant in Ukraine. Construction work on the plant started in 1976, and the nearby town of Shcholkine was constructed in 1978 to house workers working on the project. The station was inspected following the Chernobyl disaster of 1986, and was found to be located on a geologically volatile site. Construction of the facility was summarily abandoned. Between 1993 and 1999 the plant was home to the electronic music festival Kazantip. The festival was referred to as the "Reaktor" for this reason.
