Japan regains nuclear power supply

OI, Japan - Photo shows the central control room for the No. 3 reactor at Kansai Electric Power Co.'s Oi nuclear plant in Fukui Prefecture on July 5, 2012, shortly after the reactor began generating power. Japan regained supply of nuclear-generated electricity when the reactor was connected to the generator and transmission grid, with all other reactors in the country remaining idled for prolonged checkups in the wake of last year's Fukushima nuclear crisis.
