From Our Own Correspondent: Finland's Reactor Blues

The Essential

Available for over a year

The vast Olkiluoto reactor was planned as the world's largest - and it was meant to start supplying Finland with energy years ago. But the project's completion is now long overdue and way over budget. On a recent visit to the site, David Shukman had some awkward questions for Areva, the French firm which designed the facility - and he also observed two very different business cultures at work.
