Power variations occur at Ukrainian NPP - IAEA

MOSCOW. April 25 (Interfax) - All three nuclear power operated by Energoatom on the Ukraine-controlled territory - Khmelnitsky, Rovno and South Ukraine, are still producing electricity, although some units are in planned outage while others occasionally have to reduce output, Ukrainian media said, citing the latest statement by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Secretary General Rafael Grossi.

"At the Khmelnitsky NPP, for example, one reactor remained in outage for maintenance and refueling, while the power production of the second unit was reduced at the request of the grid operator for 36 hours earlier this week," Grossi said,

At the Rovno NPP, the second unit was placed in outage for maintenance and refueling, while power production of the third unit was reduced at the request of the grid operator for a few days this week, he said.

"The South Ukraine NPP also experienced power variations this week," Grossi said.
