Tokyo Could Cut ¥1.2 billion in Grants to Niigata for Idle Reactors
The [Japanese] central government could reduce grants to local governments in Niigata Prefecture by more than ¥1.2 billion (US$10.6 million) in total if the governor does not approve the restarts of two nuclear reactors. Tokyo is planning the decreases under revised regulations related to reactors that remain idle despite being cleared to run. The Nuclear Regulation Authority on December 27 said the No. 6 and No. 7 reactors at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant in Niigata Prefecture have passed major safety screenings for a resumption of operations.

Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd. Spent Rs 706 Crore More on Kudankulam Nuclear Plant Component, Finds CAG
The Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd. (NPCIL), which had agreed to build a major component of the Russian-made Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) on its own to save cost, ended up spending Rs 706 crore (US$110 million) more, a Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) report has said. According to the report, the cost of Russian scope in building the plant was nearly $1,600 million during initial negotiations between the NPCIL and Russia’s Atomstroyexport. “Thus, the NPCIL incurred an extra amount of Rs 706.87 crore as it did not conduct a cost-benefit analysis before agreeing to the shifting of scope,” the report said.
