The offensive of the Armed Forces in the Kursk Oblast: Energy said that it would be captured by NPPs

The Kursk NPP is one of the largest in Russia, but according to experts, its shutdown will not have "critical consequences". It is possible that the work of the station will be stopped by the Russians themselves. Control of Kursk NPPs, if the Armed Forces reaches there, will not become a disaster for the Russian Federation. Energy experts told more about this in the NV comment. Kursk NPP is one of the four largest aggressor stations.

It has four power units, but now light generates only two of them - with a total capacity of 2 GW. Vladimir Omelchenko, Director of the Energy Programs of the Center Razumkov, explained that the stop of these power units will only have a temporary effect. The station in the Kursk region feeds two mining basins and one metallurgical plant, so it will take time to switch to alternative electricity supply schemes. "In Russia, there is no shortage of generations unlike us.

They have a total generation capacity about about 250 GW, and therefore the loss of 2 GW is less than 1%. This will not lead to any critical consequences," Omelchenko emphasized. Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Lytvyn, noted that it is better not to stop the units, but to disconnect from the Russian network. He explained that the work of the station is not easy to stop, and it takes a long time to cool.

At the same time, the loss of power of 2 GW, according to the expert, will be noticeable for the Russian Federation. "I am almost sure that they will not capture it. A simpler option is to disconnect from the network. They will stop it themselves, create problems for their single network. We are why not enter the nuclear power station? -a core. Litvinsky also described the script for which the enemy will stop the work of Kursk NPP.

"If the transmission lines are torn, then there is no point in chasing the empty nuclear power units. If you cannot ship electricity, then the only way is to stop the atomic station," he explained. We will remind, in the media informed that at the Kursk NPP already prepared for a "meeting" from the Armed Forces. In the case of seizure of power units, the station plans to turn off. US President Joe Biden first commented on the Armed Forces offensive in Russia.
