Energoatom launches second NPP power unit in July after repairs

The Energoatom national nuclear energy generating company put into operation a power unit of one of the nuclear power plants (NPP) after scheduled repairs.

This was announced by the Ministry of Energy, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

"One of the nuclear power units has been connected to the power system at one of the NPPs after planned repairs completed ahead of schedule. This will significantly affect the stability of the power system and reduce the existing electricity deficit," the report says.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, on July 17, the Energoatom national nuclear energy generating company connected the 1,000-capacity power unit to the power grid after scheduled repairs.

Ukraine has lost 9 GW of capacity since the end of March due to russian shelling.
