Annual outage of Olkiluoto 1 extended due to fault detected in generator

The annual outage of Olkiluoto 1 is expected to conclude on June 16th according to the revised schedule.

The extension is due to a fault detected in the generator during the maintenance. Detailed investigations and repair plans for the fault have been initiated immediately. The generator converts the turbine's kinetic energy into electricity.

The annual outage of OL1 began on May 12th. Olkiluoto 2 and Olkiluoto 3, which have already completed their maintenance, are producing electricity normally. Currently, they are generating electricity at a capacity of approximately 2,460 MW.

Moreover, the world's first final disposal facility for spent nuclear fuel is under construction in Olkiluoto.
