Description

Five NPPs are in operation in Switzerland. There are no new plants under construction at present or planned in the near future. In the field of I and C, efforts are essentially directed to maintaining high performance and to improving the safety of the plants in operation. Three of these plants are about 20 years old and a significant part of their I and C equipment has to be replaced. This is an ongoing process which is carried out stage by stage during the annual shutdown. Measures to avoid or mitigate severe accidents, including core melting, have been taken or are planned.
