The Beloyarsk NPP produced over 399,5 million KWh of electricity in February

The power unit №3 with the BN-600 reactor of the Beloyarsk NPP generated more than 399.5 million Kilowatt-hours of electricity in February 2015,.

The capacity factor of the power unit for the month was 99.09 percent.

There were no deviations from normal operation. Radiation situation in the vicinity of the nuclear power plant is located at the natural values.

Preparatory works for the launch are being done at the power unit №4 (BN-800).

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