UPDATE 1-Fresh setback for Finland's delayed OL3 nuclear reactor

The start-up of Finland's long-delayed Olkiluoto 3 (OL3) nuclear reactor is likely to be pushed back by at least another two months, its project director said on Wednesday.

This meant the loading of nuclear fuel into the reactor would now be pushed back by at least two months, to August from June, it added. Project director Jouni Silvennoinen told Reuters the fuelling delay would also likely postpone the start-up of regular electricity production by an equal number of months.
