Perspective Investment Projects
Construction of the Central Spent Nuclear Fuel Storage
Facility of the Ukrainian NPP reactors of the VVER type
Storage facility operation will allow to ensure the long-term
maintenance of the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) of the Ukrainian NPP
reactors of VVER type on the territory of Ukraine and to waive the
removal of SNF to Russian Federation till the solution of the issue of
the SNF reprocessing ( for the purpose of the reuse of the valued
nuclear materials) or SNF disposal in the deep geological formations
The storage design capacity must provide the
containment of not more than 17 000 fuel
assemblies of the VVER reactors during a
period of not less than 100 years

Selection of a NPP Design for new sites
Construction of power units on new NPP sites
requires that a most suitable unit design shell be selected
Multiplication of that unit in future allows maximum
cost effectiveness due to :
• Unification of the construction projects and their
implementation procedures
• Equipment and construction cost reduction
• Increase of domestic suppliers’ involvement
25
Selection of a NPP Design for new sites
Technical characteristics of a NPP are defined in IAEA
Standards, EUR requirements and the state regulatory
and legal documents.
Activities underway on selection of a reactor
installation design:
• Evaluation of design information offered by the
leading NPP vendors
• Analysis of domestic suppliers’ capabilities to support
the project implementation
• Investigation into the power grid demands and
specificity of prospective NPP sites

EC-IAEA-Ukraine Joint Project: “Safety Assessment of Ukraine Nuclear
Power Plants”
In 2005 EU & Ukraine signed a MOU on cooperation in the field of energy, aimed at
integration of energy markets.
Road Map covering some areas, including Nuclear safety
“Safety Assessment of Ukraine Nuclear Power Plants” Project Objective
Within the framework of the Road Map for Nuclear Safety, an Agreement was signed with the
IAEA to assess the compliance of Ukrainian NPPs with current IAEA Safety Standards in
the following areas:
Task 1: NPP design safety;
Task 2: NPP operational safety;
Task 3: Waste management and decommissioning
Task 4: Regulatory issues
36
Nuclear Energy in Ukraine Today and
Tomorrow (International Cooperation Activity)
This is the first time that such a complete and comprehensive safety assessment
was done in the areas of the Regulatory Body and NPPs activities in a country,
is being carried out by the Agency in any Member State
RESULTS:
full compliance with most of the IAEA’s Safety
Requirements
Progress to meet the IAEA’s Standards was observed
in some of those areas where non full compliance was
identified
Similar deviations from standards, as some of those
bserved in this Project, can be find in other NPPs
worldwide
The Project is running on schedule, within estimated
budget and with a good interaction among all
stakeholders
Final Project Report approved on February 2010
