The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.

Reactor timeline, electrical capacity and annual electricity supplied; historical table derived from IAEA PRIS.
Issuer annual report: five TVA units shut in 1985; Sequoyah returns May/November 1988; Browns Ferry 2 May 1991 and 3 November 1995; Unit 1 pre-commercial operation June 2, 2007.
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
Unit 1 returns in November 1988, completing Sequoyah’s recovery from the 1985 shutdown. Day 1 is a month-only anchor.[1]
1148 MW electrical capacity. Historical generating capacity; not a claim about current output. Calendar-1988 electricity supplied: 127.69 GWh (annual energy, not instantaneous output).[2]
Cost: not assigned. No event-specific published construction/restart budget was verified. Financing, damages and other phases are not substituted.
Only the month is supported. 1988-11-01 is a timeline anchor, not a confirmed operating day. Unit 1 returns in November 1988, completing Sequoyah’s recovery from the 1985 shutdown. Day 1 is a month-only anchor.
