The operational safety performance review of units 3 and 4, each having a capacity of 220MW, is being carried out by a 12-member team from the IAEA.
Since the beginning of the review program in 1982, IAEA’s team has performed 171 reviews, including the latest one in Rajasthan.
Rajasthan Atomic Power Station 3&4 site director JP Gupta told Business Standard that "IAEA team headed by Miroslav Nipar has been carrying out its review since October 29. The team was here at the invitation of the Government of India."
IAEA’s team has reviewed good practices launched by the power plant and it would suggest improvements to further ameliorate operational safety, according to Gupta.
Currently, the atomic power plant at Rawatbhata in the Indian state of Rajasthan consists of eight units including two units of 700MW, each under construction and generating a total of 1,140MW.
