Business activity. Rosatom took active part in Türkiye’s Nuclear Power Plants 7th Expo and 11th Summit (NPPES 2025) in Istanbul. This year’s NPPES brought together over 1,400 delegates and 212 companies. Speaking at the opening ceremony, Rosatom’s Director for International Business Boris Arseev noted that Rosatom holds roughly 90% of the global market for overseas construction of large nuclear power plants. Esra Songur, Director for Sustainable Development at Akkuyu Nuclear JSC, emphasized the significance of the Akkuyu NPP project for the development of Turkish energy sector and its multiplier effect on the Turkish economy. Rosatom also showcased its advanced large and small-scale nuclear generation products, multifunctional nuclear science and technology centers based on research reactors, and logistics solutions.

Training. A joint school on nuclear knowledge management has concluded at the Moscow branch of Rosatom’s Technical Academy. Organized by Russia and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the event was attended by 26 professionals from 17 countries. The five-day training program focused on practical applications, with trainees analyzing real-world case studies from different countries and working on team projects. The task involved developing a comprehensive knowledge management strategy for a business unit, covering every stage—from drafting project proposals and action plans to developing risk assessment and knowledge retention strategies. On the final day, each team presented and defended its project.

Cooperation. Representatives of China’s Xiapu Nuclear Power Plant visited Russia’s Beloyarsk NPP, which is home to BN-600 and BN-800, two operating fast neutron reactors, both unmatched worldwide in operational longevity. China’s Xiapu is the only nuclear facility outside of Russia with a large fast neutron reactor in operation. The foreign delegation met with the Beloyarsk NPP management and representatives of Rosatom’s mechanical engineering division, the Russian partner in constructing the CFR-600 reactor. The guests explored the technical capabilities of Russian-designed fast neutron reactors and discussed potential cooperation opportunities. Construction of the CFR-600 reactor started in late 2017, with commissioning in late 2023. A second similar unit at the same site is scheduled to start operations in 2026. In Russia, the next sodium-cooled fast neutron reactor will be BN-1200M, to be built at the Beloyarsk NPP.
