The two reactors are now in operation, which has not happened since January of last year. The reactor 4 was stopped last September for construction work due to the failure to establish a facility for terrorism countermeasures required by the regulations of the nuclear power plant, and was completed about 4 months later than the initial deadline on February 2. The expected improvement in the spare electricity supply capacity, which currently stands at 6.5% this month, is expected to increase by about 0.3 points. <\/span><b>Source:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20230207\/5010019147.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-151403\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_genkai-nuclear-plant-feb-7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C789&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kyushu Electric Power Restarts Operation of Reactor 4 at Genkai Nuclear Plant\" width=\"1400\" height=\"789\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_genkai-nuclear-plant-feb-7_2023_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_genkai-nuclear-plant-feb-7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_genkai-nuclear-plant-feb-7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C577&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/fnn_genkai-nuclear-plant-feb-7_2023_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C433&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Get Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu area news and events in English regularly.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sign up for our <\/span><b>free<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> weekly newsletter.
