Preliminary results of the work of Rosenergoatom Concern in 2007

10 nuclear power plants of Russia operate 31 units with a total capacity of 23,242MW:

15 WWER reactors:

9 WWER-1000
6 WWER-440

15 RBMK reactors:

11 RBMK-1000
4 EGP-6

1 BN-600 (fast-breeder) reactor

In Jan-Dec 2007

The power generating companies of Rosatom produced 161.247bln KWh

The nuclear power plants of Russia generated 158.280bln KWh – 102.3% of the index of 2006:
— NPPs with WWER reactors produced 81.898bln KWh or 98.6 % of the index of 2006;
— NPPs with RBMK, EGP and BN reactors produced 76.382bln KWh or 106.7% of the index of 2006;

The NPPs of Russia fulfilled 102% of the plan.

The capacity factor made up 77.7% — 1.7% more than in 2006.

No INES incidents were registered at the NPP of Russia in 2007, with 15 unplanned stoppages of units (against 20 in 2006) and 47 operating problems (against 42 in 2006).

The radiation situation at the NPPs and in their nearby areas was within norm.
