The 1,400-megawatt Shin-Hanul Unit 2 reactor, which began construction in 2010, was granted final approval for operation from the Nuclear Safety And Security Commission on Thursday, only about a month after the regulator began the assessment. The Shin-Hanul Unit 2 reactor will go through a six-month trial run before commercial operation. The Shin-Hanul Unit 1 was granted approval from the nuclear regulator in 2021 and began operating in December last year.
