Almaraz Reactor I Stopped After Extension of Plant Until 2030

Notícias Lx14 September 2026 at 22:35

The Almaraz nuclear power plant has reactor I stopped due to "technical problems," according to the Iberian Energy Observatory. The stoppage occurred about a month after Spain extended until June 2030 the operating license for the two units of the plant.

The organization questions the extension of the service life of the Spanish plant, located 110 kilometers from the Portuguese border. The Iberian Energy Observatory expresses doubts about the decision to extend the operation of the nuclear facility.

Why this matters

The proximity of the plant to Portugal (110 km) means that any nuclear incident is a direct concern for Portuguese readers. The stoppage of the reactor, after the controversial license extension, raises questions about the safety of the infrastructure and cross-border risks.
