Upgrade of the physical protection system at South Ukraine NPP

As part of the international technical assistance project “Upgrade of the Perimeter of the South Ukraine NPP separate subdivision (SE NNEGC Energoatom)”, funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, Keentegro, together with our German partner SOMMER FASSADENSYSTEME-STAHLBAU – SICHERHEITSTECHNIK GmbH & Co. KG, successfully supplied security lighting masts and LED security lighting units for South Ukraine NPP (SE NNEGC Energoatom).

The joint project to upgrade the physical protection system of South Ukraine NPP began in 2015. It was based on the G7 initiative to expand and deepen cooperation on improving nuclear safety and security at Ukraine’s nuclear power plants (“Global Partnership against the Spread of Weapons and Materials of Mass Destruction”, 2014, The Hague). We thank our partners for their cooperation!

For reference: South Ukraine NPP is located on the banks of the Southern Buh River in Yuzhnoukrainsk, Mykolaiv Oblast, and is a separate subdivision of SE NNEGC Energoatom. It is part of the South Ukraine Energy Complex, which comprises South Ukraine NPP (three VVER-1000 power units with a total capacity of 3,000 MW), the Oleksandrivka HPP on the Southern Buh River (two hydro units with a total capacity of 11.5 MW) and the Tashlyk PSPP (hydro units with a total generating capacity of 320 MW have been commissioned; the second stage – hydro unit No. 3 – is under construction).
