Hokuriku Elec to restart nuclear unit this week

TOKYO, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Hokuriku Electric Power Co. said on Wednesday it would restart the 540,000 kilowatt No.1 nuclear power generation unit at its Shiga plant after an unplanned shutdown due to technical problems.

The unit in the northern Japan plant is expected to start generating electricity on Friday after being shut down for safety inspections since Nov. 7, a company spokesman said.
