Chubais mentioned that a unique orthogonal tool of the tidal power plant is the first tool in the world, discovered by Russian scientists. It is a pilot project, and specialists have to work hard on managing the orthogonal tool. The orthogonal turbine of the plant rotates one side, independently of fluxes and refluxes, RIA News reported.
Kolenergo energy company is an owner of the unique Russian pilot Kislogubskaya tide power plant. After 10 years of delay the plant was put into operation in December last year due to construction of a new orthogonal hydroelectric unit. Specialists of Kolenergo company say that the unit opens wide possibilities for industrial use of renewable sources of energy.
The report, analyzing the IAEA’s actions since the war began, offers Bellona’s assessment of the agency’s effectiveness as a UN body. It also examines the professional relationships between the IAEA’s governing bodies and officials from the warring nations.
Throughout the past year, our mission at the Bellona Environmental Transparency Center has focused on two key, but intertwined issues—nuclear and radiation safety as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine drags on, and the worldwide influence of Rosatom, Russia’s state nuclear corporation, which itself is actively involved in the war and has participated in the occupation of a Ukrainian nuclear power plant.
At the beginning of the year, reports in the German and Russian press suggested an approximate 70% increase in uranium imports from Russia to Germany in 2024. But does this reflect broader European trends? It does not. Overall, imports of uranium and nuclear fuel from Russia to Western countries actually dropped sharply in 2024. Unlike the situation in Germany, this is already an established trend.
A Lingen, Germany plant could begin producing nuclear fuel in cooperation with a subsidiary of Rosatom, Russia's state nuclear corporation, which is directly involved in the war in Ukraine and occupying the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
