Today, on March 31, 2022, the Governing Council of the World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO), at its meeting, has supported the request of NNEGC Energoatom and decided to redirect the Company together with all its stations and nuclear power units to Paris Center of WANO.
To be redirected:
1. Zaporizhia NPP (6 WWER-1000 units);
2. Rivne NPP (2 WWER-440 units and 2 WWER-1000 units);
3. Yuzhno-Ukraiinsk NPP (3 WWER-1000 units);
4. Khmelnytskyi NPP (2 WWER-1000 units).
Recall that the Ukrainian NPPs were connected to Moscow Center of WANO since it was established in 1989.
For reference:
The World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO) brings together all the world’s nuclear power plant operators. It facilitates the exchange of experience in the operation of nuclear power plants allowing members of the Association to be able to work together to achieve the highest level of safety and reliability in the operation of their nuclear power plants.
