Electricite de France SA on Wednesday upgraded its estimated nuclear output in France for the year to around 325-335 terawatt hours.

The upgrade for 2020 comes in light of current progress in its maintenance schedule, the French energy company said. Previously in July, as part of its first-half results, EDF said its estimated nuclear output in France would be 315 tWh-325 tWh for 2020.
