He said that the Russian nuclear industry has to find almost $30 billion investments until 2020 to keep in operation 10 Russian NPPs with 22,000 MW capacity (in the frames of the Russian Energy Strategy). Besides $20 billion is needed to increase energy production rate. When answering to the question about possibility of such huge investments in the state owned atomic energy Mr. Sharov said that «The Concern hopes for the increase of the investment component of the electricity price, credits and other alternatives».

Construction and upgrade of the nuclear plants in Russia is also carried out thanks to the investment component in the electricity price, i.e. paid by the electricity consumers.
