South Africa’s Koeberg Unit 1 on track to return to service in early November

Eskom says that the main mechanical work on replacing the steam generators at Koeberg’s Unit 1 has been completed. It says it will return to service on 3 November. According to News24, Koeberg’s Unit 2 will be taken offline on 7 November, slightly later than anticipated two weeks ago, avoiding the problem that both units would be offline simultaneously. Its new steam generators will first be tested and synchronised to the grid.
