TABLE — Belgian nuclear power reactor outages

(Updates expected restart date for TIHANGE 3 under reactors out of service) Oct 12 (Reuters) — Belgium has seven nuclear power reactors with a combined capacity of almost 6 gigawatts, which are operated by Electrabel, part of France's Engie (formerly known as GDF Suez). Nuclear power plants regularly stop production for maintenance or to refuel. They cut capacity gradually and it can take a few hours until output reaches zero. Unplanned outages can also occur when the operator takes the reactor offline or it shuts itself down.
