Two nuclear units at two Ukrainian nuclear power plants (NPPs) are not operating at full capacity, and the generation deficit has increased by 625 MW.

Source: An Ekonomichna Pravda source familiar with the situation

Details: A power unit at one of the NPPs is not operating at full capacity: 200 MW of power has been lost. The source said problems with it began in the spring of 2023.

A nuclear unit at another Ukrainian NPP reduced its capacity on Tuesday, 3 September, creating a deficit of 425 MW.

For security reasons, Ekonomichna Pravda has not named the nuclear power plants in question.

Background: Earlier, Ukrenergo, the Ukrainian state-owned electricity transmission system operator, reported that Ukraine had increased power restrictions due to a decrease in generation at power facilities.
