Ecologists and the renewable energy sector doubt that the schedule for the closure of the rest of the nuclear power plants will be met after the extension of Almaraz.
Greenpeace considers it foreseeable that the difficulty of disconnecting four reactors at a time in 2030 will be used as a pretext for new postponements.
The Spanish Ministry for Ecological Transition has announced an extension of the Almaraz nuclear power plant's lifespan until June 2030. This move does not affect the planned closure schedule of other nuclear plants in Spain, according to the Ministry. However, some warn that it may have a ripple effect on other atomic power plants in the country. The extension was published in the Official Gazette on Friday.
