Unplanned shutdown of Reactor at Torness Nuclear power plant

Unplanned shutdown of reactor at Torness nuclear power plant. There has been an unplanned shutdown of one of the reactors at Torness nuclear power station in East Lothian. Operators EDF energy have not indicated when Reactor 2 will return to service after the unit “tripped” on Monday. This refers to the reactor being rapidly shut down by the insertion of its control rods. The company said the cause of the incident is under investigation. Torness station, 33 miles east of Edinburgh, generates enough electricity to power more than two million homes. Statutory outages occur every three years to allow the units to undergo inspection and maintenance work. http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/14…
