Rosenergoatom: Russian NPPs made the all-time record in electric energy generation

Russian nuclear specialists celebrated their professional day – Nuclear Industry Employee Day – generating another record amount.

By 28 September, 2017 the power units of Russian NPPs (branches of Rosenergoatom Concern, a part of Rosatom Electrical Power Division) have generated 148.4 billion kWh of electric energy.

This exceeds the FTS balance – that amounts to 145.8 billion kWh – for more than 2.5 billion kWh. It is to be recalled that 138.3 billion kWh of electric energy had been generated the same day in 2016.
