A briefing on subject “Competitive advantages of Russian NPP construction projects” took place in Kaliningrad on October 24th, 2008, with discussion of the issues of nuclear power development in Russi

27.04.2009
Round table was held in the building of Kaliningrad Region Government on the initiative of JSC Atomenergoprom with participation of JSC Atomstroyexport and JSC SPb Atomenergoprojekt.
According to the Order of General Director of State Corporation Rosatom S. Kirienko, Saint-Petersburg Institute Atomenergoprojekt was recommended as a designer of Baltic NPP. JSC Energoatom Concern (the former FGUP Rosenergoatom Concern) was appointed the builder.
JSC Atomstroyexport and JSC SPbAEP – the leading organizations of nuclear power engineering field of Russia, which at present time amalgamate on the basis of the managing company for fulfilling large Russian and foreign projects on NPP construction, submitted their presentations at the briefing. Main competitive advantages of given companies is many year’s work experience in nuclear power engineering field, availability of referential NPP project of new generation, implemented in China (Tianvan NPP) and a high safety level of constructed plants.
Chief Engineer of JSC “SPbAEP” project Ivan Alexeevich Grabelnikov and the Head of Technical Department of JSC Atomstroyexport Alexandr Sergeevich Zakharov told about new design technologies, world experience of nuclear power plants construction, and about jointly implemented Tianvan NPP construction project in China – the most state-of-the-art and one of the safest plants in the world.
Baltic NPP as it was noted in expert speeches will surpass Tianvan NPP by its economic characteristics and the safety level. A new project “NPP-2006” will lay in its basis. It was developed by Saint-Petersburg Institute Atomaenergoprojekt on the basis of “NPP-91” project, under which Tianvan NPP was constructed. Baltic NPP consisting of two units will possess the capacity of 2400MW and will be the guarantor of power engineering safety of the region.
