Cooperation. A seminar by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on Leadership and Management has concluded at the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant. Over three days, IAEA representatives shared international best practices in enhancing the safety of nuclear power plants. During the seminar, experts conducted walkdowns of the VVER-1200 reactor units. The seminar was held in preparation of the plant for the Operational Safety Review Team (OSART) mission, the IAEA’s oldest type of mission for independent operational safety assessments of nuclear power plants. The mission is scheduled for 2026. A similar inspection was conducted at the plant’s fourth power unit in 2017. The Leningrad NPP is one of Russia’s largest nuclear power plants in terms of installed capacity (4,400 MW). It operates four RBMK-1000 units and two VVER-1200 units.
