The capacity factor for the Novovoronezh NPP in February was - 95.77% (planned capacity factor - 98.18%).

Since the beginning of 2014 the Novovoronezh NPP has produced 2587.8 million kWh of electricity, or 101.44% of the planned target FTS. In the power system from the beginning of 2014 have been released 2412.6 million kWh, or 101.45% of the plan. The capacity factor for two months was - 99.65% (planned - 98.23%).

Currently, power units №3, 4 and 5 of the Novovoronezh NPP are operating in a given mode.

The radiation background at the station and the adjacent territory corresponds to the normal operation of power, and do not exceed the natural background values typical for Central European part of Russia.

The Novovoronezhskaya nuclear power plant is a branch of JSC "Concern Rosenergoatom". The station is located on the bank of the Don River in 42 km to the south of Voronezh. It is the Russia's first nuclear power plant with VVER reactors (water-to-water power reactors of case type with regular water under pressure). Each of five reactors of station is head – a prototype of serial power reactors: the power unit No. 1 with the VVER-210 reactor, the power unit No. 2 with the VVER-365 reactor, No. No. 3, 4 power units with VVER-440 reactors, the power unit No. 5 with the VVER-1000 reactor. The first power unit was launched in 1964, the second – in the 1969, third – in the 1971, fourth – the 1972, fifth – 1979.

There are three power units (power units (No No 1, 2 we're stopped in 1984 and 1990 years respectively) on work at the moment.
