French vlada dala je elektrodistribuciji (EDF) zeleno svetlo za početak pripremnih radova za dva buduća EPR2 reactor sledeće generacije at nuclear power plant Gravelin on severu, navodi se on uredbi objavljenoj danas on Službenom glasniku.
The government has given EDF its permission to start preparatory work for the two new EPR2 reactors at the Gravelines (North) nuclear power plant. Developments to prepare the site for the construction of future reactors will be possible.
EDF authorised to prepare site for two new nuclear reactors in France
A sudden influx of jellyfish forced EDF to shut down three reactors at a plant in northern France. In early August, heatwave and jellyfish left a fifth of France's nuclear capacity offline.
The Government authorizes EDF to launch the pre-construction of two new generation reactors at the North Nuclear Generating Station site.
It grants the energy company the "environmental authorization" to begin the work to develop the site for the EPR2 production units. The "activities, installations, structures, and works" involved include preparing the platforms and creating site facilities, relocating the rail terminal of the Gravelines Nuclear Power Plant (CNPE), earthworks and the construction of a watertight containment structure beneath the buildings of the future power pla…
Two decrees published on the same day give the paradoxical signal of the French nuclear: the CEA can dismantle Pégase in Cadarache, which was put into service in 1963, while EDF prepares two EPR2 in Gravelines. Behind this simultaneousity, the same industrial challenge: to finance and master the past to build the future.
