💨 Abstract
In 2025, TEPCO announced a significant delay in the cleanup of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, pushing the start of full-scale fuel debris removal to 2037 or later. This is due to the need for extensive preparation, including reducing radiation and building necessary facilities. The delay affects the 2051 decommissioning target, with experts suggesting it could take over a century.
