Japan has restarted its 15th nuclear unit after Tohoku earthquake and tsunami and Fukushima disaster. It's a welcomed move that will help ease effects of limited fossil fuels supply from Persian Gulf. Before disaster NPPs supplied up to 30% of Japans electric energy. In 2023 this number was as low as 5.5%, but is expected to rise to 20%. https://www.nucnet.org/news/japan-s-kashiwazaki-kariwa-6-resumes-commercial-operation-after-more-than-14-years-offline-4-5-2026 #nuclear #Japan #KashiwazakiKariwa
