JAKARTA - The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said it was negotiating with Moscow and Kiev to reach a temporary local ceasefire to repair the power supply line at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP).
"ZNPP remains dependent on its last external power line, as the IAEA continues to negotiate with Ukraine and the Russian Federation to secure a temporary local ceasefire for repairs," the IAEA said in a statement, quoting Director General Rafael Grossi as reported by ANTARA from Sputnik, Friday, May 22.
After the disconnection of the main 750 kV "Dneprovskaya" (Dniprovska) power line on March 24, ZNPP has received external power through the backup 330 kV "Ferrosplavnaya-1" line. During this time, the power plant has lost external power supply three times.
The ZNPP nuclear power plant is located on the left bank of the Dnieper (Dnipro) River near the city of Energodar (Enerhodar).
It is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe in terms of the number of units and installed capacity, with six units each capable of generating one gigawatt. In October 2022, this nuclear power plant was under Russian ownership.
