Laguna Verde Reports Stable, Secure Operations and Steps to Reinforce Staff Training

Strengthened training and knowledge transfer are intended to protect Mexico’s power supply and preserve specialist reactor skills.

Overview

  • On May 23, official statements from the plant and the federal utility said Laguna Verde is operating stably with no incidents and follows national oversight by the CNSNS and international guidance from the IAEA and WANO.
  • The plant says it runs continuous supervision, technical evaluation, and preventive maintenance on systems and equipment to lower risk and keep generation reliable.
  • CNLV is running ongoing certification and recertification programs for reactor operators, including candidates for Operator and Senior Reactor Operator roles, and is training new simulator instructors to anchor operational knowledge.
  • Human resources planning now includes formal succession measures to handle retirements so that experienced staff can pass on tacit skills and day‑to‑day operational know‑how to newer workers.
  • Laguna Verde is presented as a strategic asset for Mexico’s electricity supply and the region, and future attention will focus on regulatory reviews and whether training and hiring keep pace with planned retirements.
