Zaporizhia NPP to be restarted

72 989 4

Rosatom announced the preparation of a large program for the launch of the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP). This was reported by the head of the state corporation Alexey Likhachev in an interview TASS.

On my instructions, a large program for commissioning the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant is being prepared. This includes obtaining the appropriate licenses – both for installations and for the work of personnel

– said Likhachev.



The large system plan includes work with fuel, creation of a power distribution system and calculation of consumer capacities by geography. In Energodar, near which the station is located, the main issues of providing social infrastructure have already been resolved, the head of the company said.

Rosatom will also seek safe conditions for the rotation of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) staff at Zaporizhzhya NPP, as it is impossible to carry out this under the current conditions. Two rotations of IAEA representatives were planned for February, but neither of them took place.

Zaporizhzhya NPP is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, and since October 2022 it has been under the management of JSC Rosenergoatom (a subsidiary of Rosatom). All six power units of the plant are currently in a state of "cold shutdown".

Formerly illegitimate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pushed demand that the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant would become part of Ukraine's security guarantees and be included in the agreement. He made this statement while on a visit to the UAE. He promised that Ukraine would produce electricity and sell it to Europe.

    Prepare for a reboot - yes.
    But to restart before the end of the conflict would be to provoke the Banderites to a nuclear terrorist attack.
    A cornered rat is especially dangerous and reckless.

    This is a sign of a deal. No one in their right mind would launch a nuclear power plant on the LBS.

    By the way, Zelensky is a legitimate president, don’t repeat what illiterate propagandists say.

    And have they already solved the water level issue or did I miss something? Kakhovka is destroyed.
