No context sorry - there are enough experimental reactors in the UK for experimentation without interruption the commercial fleet.
What would be interesting is expected vs unexpected downtime, some sort of reliability factor.

- defrost 2y agoNo drama, good link, thank you. It appears approx ballpark with Europe reactors and as if they're designed with a 70% of max load operating target to allow for downtime inspections and statutory fettling, etc.
