The Temelín Nuclear Power Plant is beginning preparations for one of the largest technological upgrades to its electrical systems since it began operations. The extensive project will be carried out between 2028 and 2032 by ŠKODA JS, a subsidiary of the CEZ Group. Since the start of the year, the Temelín plant has generated 3.0 terawatt-hours of electricity. Together with Dukovany, these are the sources that produce the largest amount of clean electricity and thus contribute significantly to the CEZ Group's emission-free production. Thanks to nuclear power plants, approximately twenty million tons of CO2 are prevented from being released into the atmosphere each year.
