    (MENAFN) According to the senior official Bakarah, the UAE's nuclear regulator issued an operating license for the first unit of the Arab world's first nuclear power plant (NPP).


    As said by Hamad Al Kaabi, deputy chairman of the Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation, the license to run for 60 years was given to the plant's operator Nawah Energy Company.


    Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation said in a statement that, "Nawah will now complete its final preparations in advance of commencing the safe loading of the first fuel assemblies into the reactor vessel of unit 1, which is the first stage in the start-up process for operations".


    The start-up of the Barakah NPP, which was slated for 2017 after the beginning of construction in 2012, was delayed because of delays in meeting safety and regulatory conditions.
