China. SNIIP, Rosatom’s Research Institute for Instrumentation Engineering, has completed equipping the nuclear island of China’s Xudabao Unit 3 with instrumentation and control (I&C) systems. Currently, the systems are being adjusted and tested. The supplied and installed equipment and related software will monitor reactor plant parameters, ensuring diagnostics, protection, and fire safety. Other deliveries from SNIIP included laboratory equipment and a full-scale simulator. The Xudabao NPP is a major cooperative project between Russia and China, involving the construction of Units 3 and 4 with VVER-1200 reactors. The agreements to this effect, including nuclear fuel supplies, were signed in 2019. Within this construction project, Rosatom acts as a nuclear island designer and supplier, and provides installation supervision and equipment commissioning services. The units are scheduled for commissioning in 2027–2028.

Indonesia. Rosatom and Indonesia’s Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency (BAPETEN) held a seminar in Jakarta on the regulation of floating nuclear power units. The event brought together over 60 representatives from government ministries and specialized organizations, marking another discussion in a series of meetings aimed at developing the regulatory framework for potential floating nuclear plant projects in the country. The attendees emphasized the importance of international expertise and professional dialogue in establishing the national regulatory system. “We highly value the readiness of our Russian colleagues to share their expertise, which makes a significant contribution to developing Indonesia’s regulatory framework for peaceful uses of nuclear energy,” said Zainal Arifin, the Acting Chairman of BAPETEN Nuclear cooperation between Russia and Indonesia has been ongoing for over 20 years. According to the national energy program, the country’s first nuclear power plant can be built and put into operation as early as 2032, and Rosatom stands ready to offer its technologies.

Türkiye. Rosatom acted as a partner for the 12th International Nuclear Power Plants Expo and Summit (NPPES) 2026, held in Istanbul. The forum was attended by over 1,100 delegates and 86 companies from around the world. Anton Dedusenko, Chairman of the Board at Akkuyu Nuclear JSC, announced the completion of construction works at Akkuyu Unit 1 and the beginning of cold hydrostatic tests. “We have focused our efforts on making 2026 the start-up year for Unit 1,” Dedusenko noted. The business program of the forum also addressed the role of nuclear energy in achieving climate goals. Rosatom representatives highlighted the potential of both large nuclear power plants and small modular reactors in generating low-carbon electricity and ensuring a reliable power supply to the industry. At the exhibition, the Russian nuclear corporation showcased its nuclear energy solutions, including closed nuclear fuel cycle technologies and the development of innovative reactors.
