The Zaporizhia nuclear power plant receives the electricity it needs through a line from Ukraine’s power grid, while work continues to restore the grid connection of the plant’s two operating reactors.
All six reactors at the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine remain disconnected from the country’s power grid, Ukraine’s state nuclear power agency Energoatom said.
However, Energoatom added that at the moment the nuclear plant’s machinery and safety systems are working normally.
Its nuclear power plant Zaporizhia receives the electricity it needs through a line from Ukraine’s power grid, while work continues to restore the grid connection of the plant’s two operating reactors.
Energoatom announced yesterday Thursday that for “the first time in its history” the nuclear plant was “completely disconnected” from the grid.
For weeks, Moscow and Kyiv have blamed each other for shelling areas near the nuclear plant, Europe’s largest, which before the Russian invasion on February 24 produced about 20% of Ukraine’s electricity.
Russian forces seized the station in early March, but Ukrainian engineers from Energoatom are still keeping it running.
