After Unit 6 of the Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant was put into operation, a leak was ascertained in the coolant system of the electricity generator. Tests are being conducted to identify the cause of the problem, Minister of Energy in the caretaker government Rossen Hristov said for bTV.
“Until the leak is eliminated, the unit will remain disconnected from the national electric energy grid. There is no change in radiation levels. The problem is technical and it is in the non-nuclear part of the system. The reactor is in normal mode,” Minister Hristov said, and added that he hoped the deadline for completing the scheduled annual maintenance – 3 November - will be met.
