Temelín Nuclear Plant Enhances Efficiency and Cuts Maintenance Costs with Precision Laser Cleaning
Temelín Nuclear Power Plant in the Czech Republic has successfully integrated laser cleaning technology to enhance maintenance efficiency and equipment longevity. During a recent maintenance outage at Unit 2, technicians employed a laser beam to clean the upper part of the inspection shaft, where internal reactor components are stored during shutdowns. This method proved to be gentle and precise, effectively removing contaminants without damaging the underlying material. The adoption of laser cleaning is expected to reduce maintenance costs and downtime by improving equipment reliability and longevity.
