The Jaslovské Bohunice Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) (Slovak: Atómové elektrárne Jaslovské Bohunice, abbr. EBO) is a complex of nuclear reactors situated 2.5 km from the village of Jaslovské Bohunice in the Trnava District of western Slovakia. Bohunice NPP consists of two plants: V1 and V2; both contain two reactor units.
At Bohunice, two reactors of the V1 plant have been deactivated. The total cost of decommission and dismantling of Bohunice V1 by 2025 is estimated at €1.14 billion. [14] The first reactor pressure vessel was removed from Bohunice V1 on June 3, 2020. [15] It is the first decommissioning of a VVER 440 plant to be completed. [16]
KS 150 is a Gas Cooled Reactor using Heavy Water as a moderator (GCHWR) nuclear reactor design. A single example, A-1, was constructed at the Bohunice Nuclear Power Plant in Jaslovské Bohunice, Czechoslovakia. The power plant suffered a series of accidents, the worst being an accident on February 22, 1977, rated INES-4. Since 1979 the plant ...
Slovakia is looking to build a new nuclear power unit of up to 1,200 megawatts (MW) at its Jaslovske Bohunice plant. The economy and finance ministries are due to submit plans to the government by ...
The first new reactor in Jaslovské Bohunice was activated in 1978, the remaining 7 during the 1980s. [ citation needed ] At the end of the 1970s a decision was made to build two more power stations: Temelín (southern Bohemia, 4 × VVER-1000, 1000 MWe) and Mochovce (southern Slovakia, 4 × VVER-440 v. 213, 440 MWe).
The privately funded, advanced nuclear engineering company will invest $100 million and create 55 jobs to deploy the reactor at the East Tennessee Technology Park.
The reactors are fuelled by uranium dioxide UO 2. Fuel is placed in the reactor in 312 fuel assemblies. Each assembly consists of 126 fuel rods with a hermetically sealed fuel. Dukovany Nuclear Power Station has 8 cooling towers, each 125 metres tall. In 1994, a visitor information centre was opened at the site.
The Manhattan Project National Historical Park includes historic B Reactor at the Hanford nuclear site. It is open for bus tours for part of 2024. Tours will be offered only until construction ...
