TOKYO (Reuters) - A high court in western Japan on Friday rejected a lawsuit to shut down Shikoku Electric Power Co's only operating nuclear reactor, Kyodo News reported.
A branch of the Yamaguchi District Court denied a legal bid by residents to shut the No. 3 reactor at the Ikata nuclear plant, Kyodo said.
The 890-megawatt reactor was restarted on Oct. 27 and is currently running at full capacity.
The restart followed a Hiroshima High Court in late September that lifted a 2017 injunction blocking operations at the reactor.
Nuclear remains an unpopular energy option in Japan and the country will reboot only a fraction of the 54 reactors it had before the Fukushima disaster in 2011.
