Uh, what's the current state of play in Spain?
4:58
Yes, you're right.
4:59
We have seen different approaches in different countries, as in Sweden or Belgium or recently in Taiwan when they have changed their minds.
5:08
But in Spain the, the schedule is still in place.
5:12
It comes from a decommissioning protocol signed in, in 2019, March, between the companies and ENRESA.
5:19
ENRESA is the state-owned company that is responsible for the radioactive waste and the commissioning.
5:26
So this protocol assumed that the fleet would run to an average of about, uh, 46 years with phase shut down so we can afford the, the, the commissioning with Almaraz Unit 1 starting the 1st of November 2027, then the Unit 2 of Almaraz in 2028, and the last one will be Trillo in May 2035.
