Tokyo: Japan is set to give the green light this week to restart the world's biggest nuclear plant, local media reported Wednesday.
The resource-poor country pulled the plug on nuclear power after the 2011 Fukushima disaster, but it wants to revive atomic energy and reduce its dependence on imported fossil fuels.
The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear plant is expected to get approval this week from the local governor to resume operations, according to Kyodo News and the Nikkei business daily, citing unnamed sources.
Hideyo Hanazumi, governor of central Niigata province, where the plant is located, is expected to hold a news conference on Friday, the reports said.
Of the seven reactors at Kashiwazaki-Kariwa, only one will resume functioning.
