As nuclear energy accounts for over half of power generation in the country, Ukraine heavily depends on nuclear fuel for its four nuclear power plants.
Only one new nuclear power plant is still under construction in the United States and no other new plants are being planned. However, it is important that the United States continue to operate nuclear power plants for as long as possible. As they are eventually shut down, a large percentage...
The reliability of pumping units at nuclear power plants (NPPs) is critical in terms of their energy efficiency and safety. Remarkably, WWER-1000 reactors at Ukrainian NPPs are equipped with outdated pumping units that have already served their full-service life. This fact leads to an urgent ...
In Europe, the construction of nuclear power plants has commenced in Russia (four reactors with a total net capacity of 3.85 GWe), the United Kingdom (two reactors with a total capacity of 3.26 GWe), Ukraine (two reactors with a total capacity of 2.07 GWe), and Slovakia (one reactor ...
This includes new plants, as well as the upgrade of existing facilities. The construction and planning of new nuclear power reactors is essential to the safety of their operation. Methodical planning in plant design, materials, and labor ensures the success of the nuclear project. Nevertheless, ...
. The conclusions of Ref. [3] may be surprising at the first glance specifically as the issue is not life-cycle emissions including fuel preparation, construction of power plants, waste management and final waste deposition [5] rather emissions during operation....

In over 11,000 cumulative reactor-years of commercial Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) operation in 32 countries; only four major accidents have occurred so far: ThreeMile Island accident in Pennsylvania, USA (1979); the Chernobyl NPP accident in Kiev, Ukraine (1986); the reactor accident in Japan...
Commissioned by the Australian government, this report explored the potential for nuclear power generation in Australia. It assessed the feasibility, costs, and benefits of establishing nuclear power plants and considered the country’s uranium resources. 3.] Fox Report (1976): The report, officially...
