Each of the power units produces about 28 million kWh of electricity per day. The share of nuclear generation in the total volume of electricity production in Belarus is 40%.
The construction and commissioning of Belarusian NPP has become an important milestone in the development of the energy system:
- the country is fully self-sufficient in its own electricity and has refused to import it;
- large-scale electrification and the transition of populated areas to electric heating improve the living comfort of millions of people;
- the number of electric vehicles is growing in Belarusian cities;
- due to the ongoing modernization of electrical networks, the reliability of power supply is ensured.
