PARIS, Jan 24 (Reuters) - Fourteen reactors out of 56 at power company EDF are currently off-line, two more than earlier this year, French energy transition minister Agnes Pannier-Runacher told BFM TV on Tuesday.

Earlier this month, EDF said that its total nuclear production in France had reached 279.0 terawatt hours (TWH)in 2022, a 22.7% drop when compared with the previous year.

The French government is currently in the process of buying out the whole of EDF. (Reporting by Sudip Kar-Gupta, Editing by Benoit Van Overstraeten)
