The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Station Unit No.7 (ABWR: 1,356MW) had been shut down since 
the Niigata-Chuetsu-Oki Earthquake occurred on July 16, 2007. On May 8, 2009, we have started a 
series of functional tests for the entire plant, and have performed pre-planned tests. 

The unit began generating power on May 19, and is keeping constant operation at rated thermal 
output from June 6. Monitoring the operating status of the plant continuously, we have 
confirmed that the final evaluation of functional tests for the entire plant are satisfactory 
by June 19, 2009. 

Subsequently, we will compile the evaluation at each stage, and submit the evaluation report 
regarding functional tests for the entire plant of the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power 
Station Unit No.7 to the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) of the Ministry of 
Economy, Trade and Industry.
