Fault puts nuclear power station offline over Christmas

 A reactor at a nuclear power station went offline over Christmas, an
energy provider has confirmed. EDF Energy said the outage at Heysham 2
power station, near Morecambe, on Monday was caused by an issue with the
high voltage transmission system run by National Grid. National Grid
confirmed there was a fault at one of its remote substations that was at
about the time Heysham 2 tripped. EDF said it worked with National Grid
over the Christmas period to fix the issue and safely return the reactor to
service.
