Decommissioning

TVEL and AllWeld Nuclear and Industrial have agreed to cooperate in the nuclear backend area

The Lepse Floating Technical Base Dismantlement Project has been successfully implemented in the Murmansk Region
ROSATOM has completed a significant milestone of a large-scale environmental program for the elimination of the hazardous nuclear and chemical legacy.
The Murmansk Region closes the more than ten-year history of the dismantlement of the Lepse Floating Technical Base (FTB), which supported the operation of the first nuclear-powered icebreakers and the spent nuclear fuel storage facility of which has posed a significant environmental risk to the region for many years. The last - bow - unit packaging with decontaminated fragments of the ship has been placed in the Sayda-Guba reactor compartment storage facility.
At a gala event dedicated to the project completion, Andrey Nikipelov, ROSATOM Deputy Director General...

Palisades Nuclear Power Plant - last attempt
The authorities of the state of Michigan (USA) are looking for ways to avoid the closure of the Palisades nuclear power plant in the hope of saving hundreds of jobs.
The Palisades NPP consists of a single unit with a PWR reactor with a net capacity of 805 MWe. The plant has been in commercial operation since December 1971. The Entergy, the owner of the plant, previously announced that on May 31, 2022 the plant will be permanently shut down.
It became theoretically possible to avoid closure after the adoption by the US Department of Energy of the Civil Nuclear Credit Program in the amount of 6 billion USD.
The program allows the owners of nuclear power plants in difficult economic conditions to apply for financing, which...
