July 3 (SeeNews) - Bulgaria's sole nuclear power plant (NPP) Kozloduy said on Monday it has taken off the power grid the turbo generator of its 1,000 megawatt (MW) Unit 5 for repairs.
The repairs have no bearing on nuclear and radiation safety, the plant said, adding that the radiation situation in the area of the nuclear plant is unchanged.
During the repairs, Unit 5 is operating at 40% of its capacity.
Kozloduy's other unit, the 1,000 MW Unit 6, operates at 96% capacity.
The Kozloduy NPP remained with two operational reactors of 1,000 MW each after the country closed down four units of 440 MW each to address nuclear safety concerns of the European Union prior to its accession to the bloc.
