Information on NPP Temelín 166 / 2006

Unit 2 is in operation at planned power level. At Unit 1, the technicians have successfully completed all prescribed reactor core physics tests at power levels up to 90 %.

August 24, 2006

The State Office for Nuclear Safety is now assessing the documents submitted to the achievement of the planned reactor power of 97 %, at which the final physics tests will take place. All auxiliary systems are working in accordance with the operation needs of individual units.

Information on parameters at Unit 1 today on August 24, 2006 at 07:00 o‘clock:
· Unit is in Mode 1 - power operation
· Reactor power is 90 %
· Turbine generator output - 906 MWe
· Electricity production since the beginning of the year: 3 644 679 MWh

Information on parameters at Unit 2 today on August 24, 2006 at 07:00 o‘clock:
· Unit is in Mode 1 - power operation
· Reactor power is 83 %
· Turbine generator output - 825 MW
· Electricity production since the beginning of the year: 4 574 044 MWh

* Power effect - a use of the reactor core physics properties that make possible the maximum possible exploitation of the energy contained in the fuel. It comes into exploitation exclusively at the end of the fuel campaign; it is due to it that the fuel campaign may be prolonged by up to 20 days. It is accompanied by the stepwise reactor power reduction by about 0,7 % per day.
