Around 250 shareholders attended, with discussions including the extension of Sendai&#8217;s Unit 1 operation. President Kazuhiro Ikebe reassured the commitment to improved safety and the necessity of nuclear energy alongside renewables to achieve carbon neutrality. Despite these discussions, the proposals were overwhelmingly defeated. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20240626\/5010024720.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-160727\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/fnn_kyuden-bldg-feb_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=1400%2C980&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kyushu Electric Power Shareholders Reject Nuclear Plant Decommissioning Proposals\" width=\"1400\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/fnn_kyuden-bldg-feb_2024_WEB.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/fnn_kyuden-bldg-feb_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=300%2C210&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/fnn_kyuden-bldg-feb_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=1024%2C717&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/fnn_kyuden-bldg-feb_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=768%2C538&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
