EDF seeks data review on report of possible China radiation leak

French utility group calls for board meeting as Chinese partner says reactors are operating normally

EDF said on Monday that it had been “informed of the increase in the concentration of certain noble gases” in the first reactor at Taishan Nuclear Power Plant, which is majority held by China General Nuclear Power Corp. Noble gases are inert gases, such as helium, xenon and radon.
