The unplanned shut-down of the second block ended today at 10:45 o'clock upon its reconnection to the grid. This block should achieve its full power output in the evening. The block has to be shut down for repair of the generator duct in the non-nuclear part of the power plant.

The energy company ČEZ decided not to exercise its first option to sell the Počerady power plant to Vršanská uhelná a.s., a mining company from the Czech Coal group. ČEZ will still have another chance to sell the plant as of 2024 if it decides to do so.

Prague, 13 January 2014 – Enjoy a view of the most interesting or commonly inaccessible parts of power plants by means of power plant virtual tours recently launched by the CEZ Group. Between January 13 and the end of February, a total of 7 power plants with 105 stops will gradually be open to virtual visitors. In the case of Temelín, it is globally the first presentation of such a tour solution among more than 430 reactors in the nuclear power plants operated all over the world.

ČEZ has received a letter from the European Commission in which the Commission approved the sale of the Chvaletice power plant to Litvínovská uhelná. There are no more obstacles that would prevent the power plant from being handed over to the new owner on September 2, 2013. This will also put a definite end to the investigation of ČEZ conducted by the European Commission.
