The completion of power Units 3 and 4 of the Khmelnytskyi NPP is not only an important step towards Ukraine’s energy independence, but also a powerful impetus for the development of the regional and national economy. One of the key aspects of this process is the creation of new jobs, which, in their turn, will contribute to the growth of small and medium-sized business, increase of community income and investment attraction.
At various stages of the project implementation, creation of thousands of new jobs is expected – from construction specialties to high-tech professions in the nuclear power industry. This means not only new employment opportunities, but also increased consumer demand, which will become an incentive for business development in the NPP satellite town.
An increase in the number of employed people in the region means growth in their purchasing power. This creates favourable conditions for business, in particular in the areas of trade, education, food service, housing sector, etc.
According to experts, each new job in industry creates 2-3 additional jobs in the service sector, which means overall economic growth in the region.
The growth of business activity will provide additional tax revenues to local budgets, which will allow the development of towns and cities within a 30-kilometer zone of the Khmelnytskyi NPP.
Nuclear power is an industry that ensures decades of stability. The commissioning of new power units will create additional opportunities for the development of related industries, which will contribute to increased investment in the region, improvement of infrastructure and well-being of the population.
The completion of Units 3 and 4 of the Khmelnytskyi NPP is not just an energy project, but also a catalyst for economic growth.
