The first in Russia and the world floating NPP "Akademik Lomonosov" on Saturday went from St. Petersburg to Murmansk, and then - to the port of Pevek on the north coast of Chukotka, reports Look.

Floating nuclear power plant - the most important project for the Russian North


From 2020, the floating nuclear thermal power plant (FNPP, or "buoy", as such stations are called atomists) will start supplying light and heat to the inhabitants of Chukotka.

Reactor installations of such FNPP can produce up to 70 megawatts of electricity and provide light and heat to a city with a population of over 200 thousand people.

It is assumed that the floating nuclear power plant, like "Akademik Lomonosov", will be able to provide electricity and port cities, and Arctic gas and oil platforms for 35-40 years.

A reasonable question arises - how much more profitable is it than the traditional “northern delivery”.

Anyone who has come across what it is to deliver diesel fuel via the Northern Delivery and what the price of this electricity goes to then understands that many fields and cities in the North do not develop because they do not have access to a cheap and efficient energy source.
said the former head of Rosatom, and now the first deputy head of the presidential administration, Sergei Kiriyenko.

“Judging by last year’s study of the Center for Energy Efficiency (CENEf), electricity tariffs in the northern regions of 15 reach 20 – 237 rubles per kilowatt-hour, 5 – 55 times higher than the average in Russia. This is critical for those areas of the North where there are no coal or gas deposits nearby. On the other hand, nuclear scientists insist: the cost of electricity at the floating nuclear power plant is approximately equal to the wholesale price of electricity in central Russia. It turns out that the advantages are obvious, ”the newspaper writes.

According to the director of the Institute for Energy Problems and a member of the Nuclear Society of the Russian Federation, Bulat Nigmatulin, “the first document on the“ buoyancy ”was signed in 2001 year”. Designed and built the station for a long time.

In 2010, they promised to put it in two years and put it into operation in 2013, then they moved it three years later. Now, the start date is called 2020 year
said Nigmatulin.

But, thank God, now the "buoy" will go. Once it is built - now we need to show its implementation in order to then offer something abroad,
added on.

Earlier it was reported that floating nuclear power plants have already become interested in 20 countries.

              If you do not understand that this is a full-fledged nuclear power plant based on marine reactors ..
              then not everything is simple ..

              Based on the experience in the creation and operation of ship and ship reactors, Afrikantov OKBM JSC developed a number of reactor plant designs for autonomous low-power atomic energy sources in the range from 6 to 100 MW (e): ABV-6E, KLT-40S. They are intended for integrated electricity and heat supply (both domestic and industrial) of isolated consumers in remote areas that do not have centralized energy supply, with expensive long-distance fuel. In Russia, these are large settlements and ports along the Northern Sea Route and the coast of the Far East, mineral deposits, military bases; abroad - coastal areas of developing countries. The expediency of using this type of energy sources for desalination of sea water in regions with a shortage of fresh water is justified.
              The ABV-6E and KLT-40S low-power projects of low power, most ready for implementation, involve the deployment of a nuclear power plant on land and on non-self-propelled floating vehicles.
              Such a “floating power unit” (PSU) is entirely created at a shipbuilding enterprise using the mastered technology of building atomic icebreakers and naval ships. After complex tests and delivery to the customer, the safety control unit is transported to the parking lot, where it connects to the shore networks and starts working. The floating design of the power plant minimizes the volume and cost of capital construction in the area where the nuclear power plant is located. The customer receives environmentally friendly electric and thermal energy, while the issues of storage of radioactive waste, qualified maintenance of the station and decommissioning of the station after the development of the technical resource are decided by the operating organization using the existing technological base of the nuclear fleet.

              With the aim of practical demonstration of this technology, work is underway on the construction of a head PEB for the heat and power supply of Pevek city with the KLT-40S reactor installation, the prototype of which is the installation of existing nuclear ships.

              Technical solutions included in the KLT-40C RU project are provided with legal protection and today JSC "Afrikantov OKBM" is the copyright holder:

              - 4 inventions,

              - 4 utility models,

              - 26 computer programs,

              - 79 production secrets (know-how).

                If it were an orbital or lunar nuclear power plant, then with such a long time I would have agreed. But here they go along the path they have learned. Yes, this is the first floating nuclear power plant, but it was not built and designed as a super-mega new know-how, but as a modified existing one.

                        Really, the terms are bloated. Even in the quote you quoted, it is clear that there is no fundamental difference, as I understand it, this is just a towed station. What is the know-how? Principal? Rather, it is true, as we have been told, first we report, and then we analyze reality.

                      I’ll tell you as a non-specialist that the terms are not very inflated. This is not an icebreaking reactor +. This is a completely different product, for completely different tasks and in a completely different performance. If it seems to you that you simply screwed pipes to the icebreaker that go to the shore with warm water, then you are greatly mistaken. For example, the NPP-2006 Project - with an increase in power generation from 1000 MW to 1200 MW - was worked out at VVER units for more than ten years before they began to build.

                    Then came capitalism and the Nanna-Lugar program, the wild dismantlement of nuclear submarines. The ships repaired by 80-90% went to needles, there was no question of converting the nuclear submarines into power plants. The ships that the amines themselves chose were used to pay for American money.

                In 2019-2020, the Bilibino NPP will be stopped according to the plan and the PAES should come to replace it. I don’t know if the Bilibino and Pevek power lines are connected or whether wires should be pulled, and this is 300 kilometers along the tundra.

    In the North, there are a lot of places where you need to put the NPP in 2-3-5 containers, where there is a small village, a drilling, dredge or production for local needs. And there are a lot of places. And here again

      Everything depends on the cost per sq / h. The smaller the nuclear power plant, the more expensive it is. For example, TPP-3 on a caterpillar chassis was in trial operation back in 1961. Now of course there are more advanced ones, but economic feasibility and security raises questions.

It may happen that the FNPP will be the only copy, and will subsequently be disposed of together with the old nuclear submarines. Simply, only some illusions will then disappear. Or maybe this thingy go into a series and give an additional impetus to the development of the far north.

    There the question is simple as two fingers, first, the complete deterioration of the infrastructure of power plants located beyond the Arctic Circle. And a great need for energy in places where it is needed. In fact, there are lines, But the question of the existence of a floating nuclear power plant is the question of the ability to keep the face value. If it is simpler, then it should be provided with the prevailing moment in the supply of energy, and all the rest, stupidly should turn on or off, depending on the given object. Main question? Is there a place in the place where she will go that can determine this? Is there a loopback of networks and wiring in cases of situations that are not provided for by the standards. What is it for?

Pevek in private has a population of 4300 people. There is now the Chauzn coal-fired CHPP. Her electric power is approximately the same as that of the reactor at this floating station. And it is not known whether it will be decommissioned or not. Why is there such power (increased by almost 3 times) - it is not clear. The only argument for it is the solution to the water problem in Pevek, which appeared due to the gradual destruction of the dam. This floating station can also desalinate water in volumes from 50 to 240 tons per day

    So there can be no talk of any analogues - our power plant is therefore being built because it is economically much more profitable than other sources of electric and heat energy in the Far North and, if necessary, use a powerful source of energy without building a stationary nuclear power plant.

    Dear visitors VO! Please remember how this project began. Let me remind you: on the SEVMASH for Severodvinsk. Here is what our most official newspaper wrote: https://rg.ru/2007/04/17/severodvinsk.html And then, as often happens in Russia, according to Chernomyrdin: "We wanted the best .. . "Dear san4es, the pictures are not in vain on the site. And, no matter how the topic was imposed on our teeth, import substitution was late for years ... Maybe the management of the USC will be smart enough and the Baltic Plant will now build floating nuclear power plants in series. On Novaya Zemlya, geologists are ready for industrial exploitation to transfer mineral deposits on the South Island. But we need electricity. Such a “barge” would help geologists a lot.

      Right! I give a link to an article from 01.07.2010 and cannot help but quote from there: “The contract between the nuclear engineers and the Baltic Shipyard was a forced continuation of work on the implementation of a pilot project launched in April 2007 at the Sevmash Production Center in Severodvinsk. At that time, upcoming commercial orders for such floating power plants were widely announced. Only the smallest thing was needed - the budget financing under the head order. ”The Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Economic Development reluctantly agreed. But Herman Gref, who then headed the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade, right at a government meeting, in the presence of journalists made it clear that he did not believe in the commercial prospect of this venture. Because a kilowatt of electricity from such a low-power NPP, whatever one may say, is much more expensive than other sources of energy supply, not to mention other costs. It is for this reason that the nuclear engineers did not give money from the budget for the serial construction of the FNPP. "

      ... Maybe the management of the USC is smart enough and the Baltic Plant will now mass-build floating nuclear power plants.

      It seems that it will be mass-produced. About 20 countries are already interested in PAES. Immediate plans:
      Pevek of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug - Lomonosov is already being towed there through Murmansk, where fuel will be loaded.
      CATF Vilyuchinsk in Kamchatka - is planned.
      The Republic of Cape Verde (Cape Verde Islands) is under consultation.
      The construction of gas fields in Taimyr. Possible customer of PJSC Gazprom.
      It is possible to operate the AFMM of this project in other countries with inaccessible territories - for example, in Canada, Indonesia, etc.

      Watch the video posted in my post above. Power cables to the rigs at sea at a distance of up to 200 km are thrown from the PAES, nominally located on the shore.
