Nuclear power Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority: Two reactor shutdowns have occurred in connection with the commissioning tests at Olkiluoto 3

According to Stuk, all the plant’s systems work as planned in the situations.

Olkiluoto In connection with the commissioning tests of the third reactor at the nuclear power plant, two emergency shutdowns of the reactor occurred in January, says the Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (Stuk).

According to Stuk, all of the plant’s systems functioned as planned in the situations and the significance of the events for safety was so insignificant that they could not even be placed on the safety scale of nuclear facility events.

The purpose of a reactor shutdown is to ensure that the plant does not enter a state that would compromise nuclear safety.

Stuk emphasizes that the commissioning tests of the third reactor have so far shown that the plant is operating safely.

The first one emergency shutdown occurred on 14 January and another on 29 January.

On February 3, Teollisuuden Voima (TVO) announced that the start of electricity production at Olkiluoto 3 will be delayed.
