InEnergodar GA: The supply of energy from the NPP to the territories controlled by Kiev was suspended In the CAA of Energodar, they say that due to damage to the power lines due to shelling, electricity supplies from the Zaporozhye NPP to the territory controlled by Kiev have been suspended. Previously, the station was switched to self-catering The supply of energy from the Zaporozhye NPP to the territory controlled by Kiev has been suspended “due to technical difficulties,” the military-civil administration (CAA) of Energodar told RIA Novosti. They claim that as a result of shelling by Ukrainian troops, the power line was damaged. According to the administration, the fifth and sixth power units of the Zaporozhye NPP are in working condition, the radiation background is normal. The day before, Vladimir Rogov, a member of the Main Council of the Zaporozhye Regional State Administration, wrote in his Telegram that the Dnepropetrovsk power line was killed, also stating that this was due to the actions of the AFU. According to him, the station was switched to catering for its own needs. Energodar and the territory of the nuclear power plant are now controlled by Russian troops, but the NPP itself is still managed by Ukrainian operators. Since the beginning of hostilities, it has been constantly subjected to shelling, in which Russia and Ukraine blame each other.
On August 25, as a result of the damage received during the shelling, the station was completely disconnected from the power grid for some time for the first time in history. The head of the Ukrainian Energoatom, Pyotr Kotin, also claimed that Russian engineers had developed a plan to switch the NPP in case the fighting would lead to the rupture of the remaining lines. The company has already admitted that Russia plans to switch the Zaporozhye NPP to the Crimea, to other power lines; in this case, Ukrainian troops can “kill” the power lines with which the Russian side will try to do this, Kotin warned.
The head of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, has repeatedly called for an end to hostilities near the facility in order to avoid a nuclear catastrophe. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has repeatedly called for the demilitarization of the Zaporozhye NPP. This goal was also called by the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, but the Russian side opposes, arguing that the station will become more vulnerable.
