"Beloyarsk NPP at the forefront of science and Rosatom"

Such an opinion was expressed by the Chief Engineer of the Kolskaya NPP Vladimir Matveev at the end of the bypass of the new power unit №4 with reactor BN-800 unit at the Beloyarsk NPP, which was made by the participants of the meeting for Chief Engineers of Russian NPPs. The meeting is taking place these days in the area of the Beloyarsk NPP.

"My impressions are positive. This is the new unit, new technologies. I am sure it will work very well. You are on the cutting edge of science and Rosatom. Collective efforts were not in vain", - said Vladimir Matveev.

"During the meeting we show readiness for the energy start-up of the new unit. It's a great experience for us as well as for our colleagues from other nuclear power plants", - confirmed the Deputy Chief Engineer of the Beloyarsk NPP operating power unit №4 Ilya Filin.

Field meeting of the Chief Engineers of NPPs is held quarterly at one of the nuclear plants. Participants exchange experiences, opinions and information, discuss the progress of the programs, the most important topics and issues, develop solutions within the unified technical policy of the "Rosenergoatom".

In particular, implementation of the program to replace the electrical equipment and the project "Production System" Rosatom" (PSR) of the enterprise,procurement of logistics at the nuclear power plant and others were discussed at the meeting. The meeting of Chief Engineers of NPPs is attended by representatives of the central office of the "Concern Rosenergoatom", State Corporation "Rosatom", "RTN".

The Beloyarsk nuclear power plant was entered into work in April, 1964. It was the first nuclear power plant in big nuclear power of the country and the only one with reactors of different types on one platform. The first power units of the Beloyarsk nuclear power plant were with reactors on thermal neutrons AMB-100 and AMB-200 and were stopped in connection with resource development. There is the only one power unit in the world with reactor on fast neutrons of an industrial power level BN-600 in work. There is a power unit with reactor on fast neutrons BN-800 being constructed. Power units on fast neutrons are urged to expand significantly fuel base of nuclear power and to minimize radioactive waste at the expense of organization of closed nuclear and fuel cycle.
