Russians do not work at the occupied ZNPP – an expert
He said this on the air of the “Espresso” TV channel.
“Well, I doubt that all Ukrainian employees will be fired and Russian employees will come. Because in the process of modernization during the years of independence, and in particular the modernization of the power unit of the Zaporizhzhia station with the extension of the period of operation, the configuration of many things on our units changed. They are no longer similar in their current state.” The reactor installation is currently equipped, for example, with an automatic control system for technological processes of block control of Ukrainian manufacturers, in particular “Impuls” (Severodonetsk) and “Radio” (Kropivnytskyi). This is not such a simple task,” noted Olga Kosharna.
The nuclear energy expert also believes that Russia will not have a license and the necessary information base, so it will not be able to start work at the Ukrainian nuclear power plant, just as it could not do it in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
“The second is a legal vacuum. There was an article in a Russian publication on this topic, where a Russian expert, who no longer lives in Russia, said about the problems with licenses and the information base. No one knows that ZANP is the property of Russia Likewise, there was a research reactor in Crimea that never started,” she added.
- On September 15, the highest governing body of the IAEA, which includes representatives of 35 UN countries, adopted a resolution demanding that the Russian Federation end its occupation of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
- Mark Zheleznyak, a scientist at the Institute of Environmental Radioactivity at Fukushima University, is convinced that only international organizations led by the IAEA can stabilize the environment around the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
- The ZNPP is receiving electricity instead of the national grid after engineers repaired one of the four main external lines.
