7 August , 2024  

NNEGC Energoatom is to repair two more nuclear power units this year in preparation for the upcoming heating season, said the company’s acting chairman of the board Petro Kotin.

“We have two more power units left to repair this year, which will be in the grid until November, and we will operate all nine units in the OOP, as we announced earlier,” Kotin said at a press conference during a visit to one of the nuclear power plants on Wednesday, answering questions from Energoreforma.

He also noted that the company managed to reduce the duration of repairs by more than 40 days to return the units to the grid faster.

“After the Russian occupation of Zaporizhzhia NPP, Energoatom has three nuclear power plants – Rivne, Khmelnytsky and South Ukrainian NPPs with a total capacity of 9 power units of 7.8 GW. The company indicated that the repair of one more of them, in addition to the above two, is likely to be postponed until next year.
