The state-controlled CEZ, the biggest Czech energy group, must receive permission for the further operation of the two units of the Temelin nuclear power plant next year, CEZ Group CEO Daniel Benes told CTK today, on Friday, August 2nd, 2019. He said CEZ is busy preparing the documents to prolong the operation of the blocks and it should receive the permission in late 2020. The permission is given for an indefinite period.Industry and Trade Minister Karel Havlicek (for ANO, on the photo undergoes individual dosimetric control), said after his visit to the plant today that the security measures at Temelin are perfect. Benes said Temelin would operate until 2060 since the units should operate for at least 60 years. He added that the plant may still operate in the 2060s and the 2070s. CEZ launched the operation of the plant's first unit in 2000 and of the second one in 2001. (CTK Photo/Vaclav Pancer)
