During the weekend, the hot pressure tests of both the primary and secondary unit parts have been successfully completed. The goal of them was to verify at the pressure of 17,6 MPa in the primary part and at 8,8 MPa in the secondary the leak-tightness of both power plant’s circuits prior to the unit’s restart.

On Sunday morning, the inspection of the reactor core loading has been performed and the reactor has been subsequently sealed by the inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency

The works related to the unit’s restart continue. The outage schedule assumes that Unit 1 will resume its operation at the end of September.
