Kansai Electric Power has announced the resumption of studies for a new nuclear reactor at the Mihama plant, a significant step for nuclear power in Japan after the Fukushima disasters. The government is backing the move to cope with rising electricity demand, particularly due to technological advances. The new SRZ-1200 reactor, developed by Mitsubishi Heavy, is considered the most viable option. The process of reviving nuclear power in Japan has been slow, with many reactors still out of operation due to strict regulations and local opposition.
