Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant to Receive €30 Million for Arch Restoration — Ministry of Energy

The Donors' Assembly of the International Cooperation Account will allocate 30 million euros for initial work on the reconstruction of the new safe confinement at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which was damaged by Russia.

This was reported by the Ministry of Energy.

The funds will be used to develop engineering solutions and purchase equipment to restore the arch’s functionality.

The decision was made during a meeting of the Donors’ Assembly in London.

According to preliminary estimates, the complete repair of the new safe confinement will require approximately 412 million euros.

Work is scheduled to be completed by 2030, as there is a risk of further corrosion of the structures, which could complicate the restoration.

The French have completedtheir assessment of the damage to the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant one year after the drone strike.

Currently, the Ukrainian National Guard is strengthening security at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and the exclusion zone. In addition, cooperation with units of the Armed Forces is being intensified to ensure maximum security of the facilities.
