The Russians keep the reactors in a “hot shutdown” state to provide heat and steam for nuclear safety purposes at the site, as well as for heating Energodar, where most of the plant’s personnel live.

At the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant, temporarily occupied by the Russians, there was a leak of borated water from the main circuit coolant of the fifth power unit. No radioactivity was detected in the second cooling circuit, where the leak occurred. This was announced on Saturday, November 18, on the website of the International Nuclear Energy Agency (IAEA).

As reported by representatives of an international organization, boron was found in the secondary cooling circuit of one of the steam generators of reactor unit No. 5, which is in the “hot shutdown” state.

“Borated water is used in the primary coolant to maintain nuclear safety,” the report explained.

It was noted that after the inspection, it turned out that the content of boron in the secondary cooling circuit remained within normal limits, and no radioactivity was detected there.

The Russian occupation administration of the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant informed IAEA experts that “since the concentration of boron remains within acceptable limits, the station intends to keep power unit No. 5 in “hot stop” mode, which will be re-examined after all. boiler houses used for heating in the nearby city began to operate Energodar”.

We remind you that the day before it was reported that in the Zaporizhia NPP power unit there was a leakage of reagent from the main circuit of the reactor to the second one, but the Russians did not transfer it to a “cold” state.

Before this, it was found that the incompetent actions of the racists led to a partial blackout at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. The data was confirmed by IAEA inspectors at the station.
