A business meeting was held at the construction site of the power unit for the experimental demonstration power supply complex within the Proryv (Breakthrough) Project in Seversk

During the meeting, the specialists discussed location of temporary roads, laying of networks, construction site draining. Once the construction license is granted, construction of a reactor building cast-in-place foundation slab will start. During cast-in-place continuous casting of the foundation, 400 thousand cubic meters of concrete will be used.

JSC CONCERN TITAN-2 established the standalone office for operations in Seversk. Today, there are 170 persons including subcontracting organizations and 40 units of machinery involved in the work at the construction site.

“Here in Seversk, the JSC CONCERN TITAN-2 specialists face several tasks . In addition to power unit construction for the Proryv Project with the BREST-OD-300 reactor plant, we are planning to start completion of fabrication/ refabrication plant construction –– of the first fuel plant within the Proryv project, which is now being negotiated. The plant shall be constructed by 2022. The second fuel plant is to be constructed in four years, as the design work is still underway. The power unit itself is scheduled to be ready for operation in 2026. The construction of the entire start-up experimental demonstration power supply complex Proryv will be completed in 2030”, stated Vladimir Minayev, Director for Russian Nuclear Projects of JSC CONCERN TITAN-2.
