The first AP1000 power unit of the American company Westinghouse at the Khmelnytsky NPP site can begin operation in 2028-2029, President of National Nuclear Generating Company Energoatom Petro Kotin has said.

Ukraine has completely abandoned the supply of spare parts for nuclear reactors from the Russian Federation and was able to replace them with its own production or production in partner countries, said President of Energoatom Petro Kotin.

The Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant was forced to rely on diesel generators overnight during a blackout, threatening the safety of the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, Ukraine's state nuclear energy company Energoatom reported on Dec. 2.

A break in the 330 kV Zaporizhzhia Thermal Power Plant - Ferosplavna power transmission line, which supplied power to the plant from the Ukrainian power grid, occurred on the evening of 1 December. Source: Energoatom, the national nuclear energy company, on Telegram Details: Energoatom specified that the last 750 kV Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) - Dniprovska line had been cut off at 02:31 during an air raid.

At the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), occupied by Russian aggressors, there are about 800 workers left who have not signed contracts with Rosatom, President of Energoatom Petro Kotin said.

Yuriy Nikolov, editor of the Nashi Hroshi (Our Money) anti-corruption investigative project, explained in an interview with NV Radio on Oct. 4 how European partners are increasing pressure on Ukrainian authorities to combat corruption.

National Nuclear Generating Company Energoatom and U.S. Westinghouse have signed a memorandum of understanding and cooperation to implement small modular reactors SMR 300 in Ukraine, an Interfax-Ukraine correspondent reported from the scene.

The energy system of Ukraine, most likely, will not experience a shortage of capacity in the next month with the launch of the sixth of the nine available nuclear power units with a capacity of 1,000 MW, said Energoatom President Petro Kotin.

KYIV (Reuters) -Ukraine's Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant again lost connection to its last remaining main external power line overnight and was switched to a reserve line, state-owned power generating company Energoatom said on Thursday. Energoatom said Europe's largest nuclear power plant was on the verge of a blackout as the reserve line had less than half the power capacity of the main power line.

Even with their relatively modest output, small modular reactors (SMRs) could help Ukraine compensate for the thermal generation facilities damaged by Russian missile strikes, Petro Kotin, the head of Ukraine's national nuclear operator Energoatom, told journalists on Aug. 10.
