JOHANNESBURG, Aug 14 (Reuters) - South Africa's state-owned power utility Eskom [ESCJ.UL] said on Thursday it had returned to service Unit 2 at its Koeberg nuclear plant after a controlled shutdown on July 21 for repairs.
The unit was shut down after a hydrogen leak in the cooling system in the generator at Koeberg, South Africa's only nuclear power station, outside Cape Town.
Eskom said the unit was operating at 63 percent of capacity and full operating load of 900 MW was expected early on Friday morning. (Reporting by Marius Bosch)
