The aspects of facilitating environmental protection in the Balakovo NPP’s area were one of the topics for discussion at the Balakovo municipal district administration.
“The station’s environmental policy is a part of the Rosatom Corporation’s and the Rosenergoatom Concern’s corporate policies. The IAEA oversees this direction constantly. Safety is an absolutely top priority for the NPP, and it’s far more important that electric power production. The company improves its environmental protection plan regularly based on the top-notch technologies available”, Mr. Chuprin said.

Meanwhile, the Public Chamber’s Chairman, Evgeniy Zapiatkin, noted that the Balakovo NPP employs seasoned professionals. “They do care both about the plant’s reputation and the ecological situation in the area. Year after year, I’m getting more and more convinced that our NPP operates safely”, he stressed.
