THE FUTURE OF RUSSIAN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS: ROSATOM ABROAD


The future of Russian nuclear power plants: Rosatom abroad

Russian NPPs are being planned and built around the world.

The Russian State Nuclear Energy Corporation Rosatom is one of the world’s largest nuclear companies, with operations not only in Russia, but in many countries around the world. The last years, Rosatom has been very active in trying to expand its operations, proposing and building nuclear power plants all around the world.

In the first week of October this year, Alexei Likhachev was appointed as the new CEO of Rosatom, replacing Sergey Kiriyenko. In light of these developments some commentators have foreseen that Rosatom will further increase their activities abroad in the near future, seeing as Likhachevs expertise lies in international relations.

Therefore, we have compiled a list of Rosatoms planned projects abroad as of October 2016 for further reference.

What nuclear power plants (NPPs) are planned? Which ones are being built? Don’t look further, we have got you covered.

Abroad:
Planned reactors: 19
Reactors under construction: 5

The technical data is based on official information available at Rosatoms website. A link to open-source material is also provided for each project in the list.
