Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant, Ukraine. Magate supports efforts to ensure the safety of Ukrainian nuclear power plants The world and safety ~ 60 > the fact that the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant (ZAEC) of Ukraine “is part of current negotiations” on conflict in the country, said, general director of the International Atomic Energy Agency (Magate) Rafael Mariano Grossy. He emphasized that the Magate is ready to provide technical support in this connection. “Magate has been constantly present for two and a half years on this largest nuclear power plant, doing everything possible to prevent a potentially catastrophic nuclear accident. We all hope for the speedy ending of this devastating conflict, ”said Grossy. 60 > he also added that the agency has deep knowledge and expert data on the situation at the station and is ready to contribute to the implementation of the future agreement on ZAES. “We will stay here as much as it is required to ensure nuclear safety,” he emphasized. ~ 60 > earlier this week Grossy greeted signs of more restraint in relation to the energy infrastructure, which, according to him, will contribute to the safety of the ZAEC located in the battle zone actions. 60 ~ h2 > maintenance to prevent accidents 62 > 62 > 62 ~Over the past week, the Magate team at the ZAES observed maintenance work. This activity is critically important for general nuclear safety, however, in the conditions of a military conflict, it remains a difficult task, emphasized in the agency. 60 > among past technical work-maintenance of 750-kilos distribution device and installing a new diesel generator in case of disconnecting external power supply, maintenance of the main power unit transformer No. 5, maintenance of power unit systems No. 1, as well as a temporary shutdown of a reserve line with a capacity of 330 kV for the repair of the circuit breaker. ~ 60 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 >Grossy emphasized that “regular maintenance is critical to prevent wear on equipment that can increase risks for nuclear safety.” According to him, the war makes it difficult to carry out such work, however, some of them continue. 60 > in his last report in Ukraine, published on the eve of the regular meeting of the IAEA managers this month, Grossy reported that ZAES provided the agency for the technical work for 2025, which includes the periods of planned service. All six power units. However, he emphasized that the volumes of such activities “still do not reach the necessary level.” 60 > last week the IAEA team also visited the building of the power unit system No. 2, where the presence of condensation on the walls and floor of the reactor hall, as well as preliminary signs of corrosion on some dispensed with a Krai areas. According to the representatives of the ZAES, the formation of condensate is associated with the regime of the cold stop of the reactor. Magate experts also said that they heard the sounds of military operations at different distances from the ZAES last week, but this week the situation, according to them, was relatively calm. 60 > situation in the country in other areas of Ukraine continues planned work. So, at the Khmelnitsky nuclear power plant, the maintenance and overload of fuel is underway, and the power of one of the reactors for repairing water leakage was temporarily reduced to the South Ukrainian NPP. 60 > for most of the last week of the Magate and South Ukrainian nuclear power plant, as well as on The Chernobyl facility regularly reported anxiety. On Friday, the IAEA employees at the Khmelnitskaya and Rivne NPPs were forced to hide in the territory of the stations. ~ 60 > Magate Help Magate continues to support Ukraine in the field of nuclear safety. From the beginning of the armed conflict, 115 parties of equipment have already been put in the country. 60 > regional center of hydrometeorology in Rivne was provided with a gamma spectrometric system, and the state-owned assembly is the management of radioactive materials for medical, industrial and other goals, received it. automobile. These deliveries were funded by the European Union and the Republic of Korea. It is expected that in the coming months, Ukraine will receive additional support.
