TOKYO, JAPAN (10/JUL/2011) .- Japan on Monday will reveal details of "stress tests" faced by nuclear reactors stopped before they can resume their operations, said on Sunday a senior official, while the Government seeks to ensure safety to the public after the disaster of Fukushima. Gohsi Hosono, the minister appointed by the Government to monitor Japan's response to the crisis in the nuclear power plant in Fukushima, said in an interview with Fuji TV Tokyo also announce on Monday a plan to supply electricity for the next "one or two years" to calm fears among companies about energy shortages. "The results of the new evidence of resistance and the decision on the restart can not be treated separately, "says Hosono. He held that the evidence, seeking to assess whether Japan's nuclear plants can withstand the kind of massive earthquake and tsunami that caused the crisis in Fukushima, have different criteria from those proposed by the European Union , adding: "These are Japanese-style tests." In a sudden policy shift, Prime Minister Naoto Kan said last week that Japan would conduct trials of resistance to nuclear power plants similar to those that had made the European Union after fusion of the nuclei of three of the six reactors at Fukushima Daiichi plant. The move was welcomed by critics who argue that the current safety standards in Japan have been too relaxed, but also raised the possibility of energy shortages would last until the summer of 2012 and Japan that could disrupt industrial production. The Japanese power generators are currently operating 19 of the 54 nuclear reactors that had been available before the earthquake and tsunami of March 11 core and mergers would cause explosions hydrogen in four of Fukushima Daiichi reactors. The Japanese Trade Minister said earlier this month without the approval to restart the reactors that are currently offline for maintenance, all the country's reactors could be arrested in April next year, which would add more than 30 billion dollars in energy costs in the country. The ministry has been pushing for a quick restart of reactor number two and three of Genkai in Kyushu. The announcement of new safety criteria caused a setback for officials in communities near the plant of Genkai, who said they had no information about the change in government policy. Fukushima nuclear power plant lost power after the earthquake and tsunami of March 11. Three of the reactors were a fusion of uranium fuel, and a series of explosions of hydrogen distributed radioactive material in a wide area. About 80 thousand people have been forced to evacuate the area around the plant because of the threat of radiation. The area was hit by another strong earthquake on Sunday.
