South Korea restarted the Gori-2 reactor on Saturday three years
after the suspension for safety checks and facility improvement,
the country’s nuclear reactor operator said,
AzerNEWS reports, citing Yonhap.
The nuclear reactor at the Gori Nuclear Power Plant, located in
Busan, 325 kilometers southeast of Seoul, began commercial
operations in April 1983 as the country’s third nuclear
reactor.
But its 40-year permission expired in April 2023, and its
operations had been suspended for safety inspections and
improvements that were required before the facility could resume
operations.
The Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co., which operates the reactor,
won permission last November to restart the nuclear reactor.
