RE:Fifth reactor connected to the grid in 2018Malcolm2001 wrote: Japan's Ohi 4 joins Ohi 3 and Genkai 3 and two new Russian reactors to become the fiftb connection to the grid this year. Genkai 4 is being checked for a primary heat transport pump seal but will restart once that work is completed. Many more plants are due to start in the next 18 months. And production cuts continue. U prices cannot stay this low much longer. M
Malcolm, why is it so long between criticality, connection to the grid and commercial operations ? Is it only because of testing? Ehich would not be a bad thing.
