The construction of a civil and erection base (CEB) has begun as part of the small nuclear power project with RITM-200N reactor, which is being implemented under the Russian design in Jizzakh region of Uzbekistan.

The civil and erection base will provide the necessary areas for administrative and production buildings over the entire period of construction of the small NPP units. It is also planned to place a warehouse and pre-assembly shops on this site.

"Currently, the Rosatom Engineering Division continues working on preparing the documentation for a small NPP with RITM-200N reactor plants, which is the state-of-the-art development based on many years' experience in operating Russian-designed reactors. The Russian small NPP project will provide Uzbekistan with a guaranteed volume of electricity for decades to come and lay the groundwork for the development of nuclear industry in the entire region," said Pavel Bezrukov, Atomstroyexport JSC Vice President - Director for the NPP Construction Project in the Republic of Uzbekistan.
