- I think it's a bit of a waste of capital. After all, the plant is in pretty good condition. Too young to turn off, says Christer Knutsson and Fredrik Magnusson, who are working on shipment of nuclear fuel.

- We didn't make any money simply. Ringhals 1 and 2 were loss-making, says Torbjörn Wahlborg, Production Manager at Vattenfall.

Today, Ringhals accounts for approximately 16 percent of Sweden's electricity generation. When the two reactors are closed, it will be about 10 percent, according to the Swedish Energy Agency.

The Moderates and the Christian Democrats want to consider the possibility of continuing the operation of reactor 1 and 2. But owner Vattenfall tells SVT the two reactors are not needed for Sweden's future energy supply and the company does not intend to stop the shutdown.
