Loading of nuclear fuel is expected in September, said direct quotes from the ministry. This indicates start up and commercial operation towards the end of 2014\u00a0or early 2015.<\/p>\n<p>The two Advanced Boiling Water Reactor units at Lungmen in the north of the island have had a troubled history. The first unit started construction exactly 16\u00a0years ago on 10\u00a0January 1998. Taipower\u2019s initial plan had been to secure one main contractor for engineering, procurement and construction of the units, but this failed and instead it awarded separate contracts to GE for the nuclear reactors, Mitsubishi for the turbines and various other contractors for the remainder. In 2011\u00a0Taipower was heavily criticised by the national regulator, the Atomic Energy Council, for its management of the difficult arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>When the two reactors were about one-third complete, a new cabinet cancelled the project and triggered a year-long delay that eventually ended with a government resolution in favour of construction. This hiatus, plus project management and engineering problems, pushed up the projected cost significantly. Last year a vote on whether to hold a referendum on the future of the plant descended into a brawl between opposing parties.<\/p>\n<p>When in operation the Lungmen units will produce 1350\u00a0MWe each and take nuclear power\u2019s share of power generation on Taiwan to around 20% compared to the 17% that six reactors produce now. These units are only allowed a 40-year lifespan under current energy policies, which means the oldest units, at Chinshan, would close in 2018\u00a0and 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Lungmen nuclear power plant could be in operation by the end of this year or early next year, according to reported statements from Taiwanese planners.
