Construction sites. Rosatom Director General Alexey Likhachev made a working visit to the Akkuyu NPP host region in Türkiye. During the site tour, he inspected the progress of work at the plant’s first power unit. Following this, the Rosatom chief held a working meeting on the Akkuyu NPP construction with the management of Akkuyu Nuclear JSC and the project’s main contractors. “People — our employees, Russian and Turkish nationals — are, of course, the key asset of any project. Preparations are currently underway for residents to move into the nuclear host town designed for 8,000 people. It incorporates the best housing practices, as well as extensive municipal and social infrastructure, including kindergartens, schools, and public spaces,” Alexey Likhachev emphasized. Meanwhile, the installation of the passive heat removal system (PHRS) was completed at Akkuyu Unit 1, and key components of the primary coolant circuit for all four power units were manufactured at Rosatom’s production facilities. This will be the final shipment of major equipment manufactured in Russia for the plant’s nuclear steam supply systems.
