The ZNPP is once again in the zone of increased risk of danger
Currently, the ZNPP is connected to the Ukrainian power system by only one power transmission line.
On September 2, 2024, as a result of russian shelling, one of the two external overhead lines through which the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia NPP received power from the Ukrainian power system for house load was damaged.
In the event of its damage, an emergency will arise due to the loss of external power to the pumps that cool the ZNPP reactor cores and spent fuel ponds.
Ukrainian experts cannot still inspect the place of damage and start repairing the line, because there is a real threat of repeated shelling of the site by russian troops. The line will be repaired as soon as the specialists are guaranteed safety.
