Ringhals 4 kører på halv kraft og påvirker elpriserne

Dansk

En turbine ved reaktor 4 på kernekraftværket Ringhals har været ude af drift siden lørdag aften. Reaktoren kører nu på halv kapacitet, oplyser Vattenfall.

Produktionsafbrydelsen forventes at vare ind i begyndelsen af næste uge. Årsagen er en vandlækage i en generator.

Halvdelen af Sveriges kernekraftreaktorer er allerede lukket for vedligeholdelse. Ringhals 3 har været lukket siden begyndelsen af maj.

Patrik Södersten, elpricekspert hos Fortum, siger, at driftsstoppet holder elpriserne høje i det sydlige Sverige. Her forventes prisen at nå 74 øre i morgen sammenlignet med 19 øre i dag.
