2024-09-26

The Cernavoda-1 reactor in Romania is in operation since 1996. CANDU reactors have a design life of 30 years. The lifetime shall be extended from 2029 for 30 years according to an information from operator Nuclearelectricas’s website. This would result in a total lifetime extension of even 33 years.

A transboundary Environmental Impact Assessment is ongoing. The Joint Project prepared a statement which was signed by 10 European NGOs.
