MINSK, 17 June (BelTA) – The scheduled preventive repair of the Belarusian nuclear power plant’s first unit will end in July, BelTA learned from Energy Minister Viktor Karankevich during the Electric Transport Day in Minsk on 17 June.
Viktor Karankevich said: “The first unit is now going through a scheduled preventive repair. Nuclear power plants undergo such repairs every year. It is a common practice. The repair is supposed to end in July and the unit will be once again reconnected to the power grid and will reach the rated output.”
As for the second unit, its construction readiness is at 96%. “Certain operations relating to water chemistry specifications are in progress over there now. Later on the work will proceed taking into account programs on physical launch, reactor power startup, and the pilot commercial operation followed by the commissioning of the unit,” the official noted.
The Electric Transport Day has been held for three years now in order to popularize electric vehicles as an ecological and economic way of transportation, which helps build a comfortable urban environment. This year’s exhibition has been arranged near the National Library. About 20 companies are taking part in it.
