Nuclearelectrica appointed Bogdan Deaconu as the new technical director of the Cernavodă nuclear plant, effective December 1, 2026. He replaces Dumitru Benchea following issues with Unit 1, which was disconnected from the national grid shortly after being restarted. Deaconu brings 13 years of nuclear industry experience, including roles at Cernavodă and an international organization assessing nuclear plant performance. His main goal will be to enhance equipment operation and prevent future technical problems. Meanwhile, Benchea will remain with the company as his performance is evaluated. The plant is currently working to restore normal operations after recent technical difficulties.
