Magate confirms the loss of communication of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant with the main external power line this morning. This was announced by the general director of the agency Rafael Grossy in a common communique.
At the same time, he noted, it was possible to avoid complete de -energization.
According to Grossy, this forced the nuclear power plant to rely exclusively on the restored reserves necessary to perform the main functions of nuclear security.
today at 01: 21 local time, the only remaining power line of the ZAEC for 750 kilovolts was disconnected – out of the four available to the conflict. It did not immediately know what caused the power outage and how long it lasted, ”said Grossy.
It is noted that since the beginning of the armed conflict in Ukraine at the beginning of 2022, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe has serious problems with power supply outside the site, which exacerbates the risks of the nuclear security that faces the object on the front line.
