Limerick: Montgomery County and the Nuclear Plant
Limerick is a township in Montgomery County, about 35 miles northwest of Philadelphia along Route 422 and the Schuylkill River. The population is approximately 19,000. The township was settled by Welsh and German immigrants in the eighteenth century, and its name is derived from Limerick in Ireland. Limerick Generating Station, the twin-reactor nuclear power plant operated by Constellation Energy (formerly Exelon), is the township's most prominent facility.
The Limerick Generating Station came online in 1986 (Unit 1) and 1990 (Unit 2), with two boiling water reactors producing a combined output of approximately 2,317 megawatts. The plant is one of the largest sources of electricity in Pennsylvania and remains a major employer in the region. The cooling towers, visible from miles around, are an iconic feature of the Schuylkill Valley landscape.
Residential growth in the township accelerated significantly from the 1990s onward as Route 422 improvements and the expansion of suburban Philadelphia drove development outward. New subdivisions, shopping centers, and office developments have changed what was historically a farming area into a commuter suburb. The Philadelphia Premium Outlets, opened in 2007, sit along Route 422 just east of the township.
