Nuclearelectrica, the company in charge with Romania's nuclear power plant in Cernavoda, was allowed to increase the power of the second reactor by 50 percent in August this year. CNCAN said the approval was granted after a series of check-ups and after the company met all standards for nuclear safety.
Cernavoda’s second nuclear reactor went online on August 7. The reactor was initially scheduled to be connected to the network in the last week of July.
Cernavoda’s second nuclear unit was constructed based on a deal clinched with Atomic Energy of Canada and Ansaldo-Italy in 2003. The Candu 6 reactor contained by the nuclear unit is the second after another was installed in 1996.
