Lithuania was operating an RBMK (Chernobyl-type) reactor just 140 km away from that new Generation III+ design and the majority of Lithuanians opposed the closure of the plant in Ignalina.
And that reactor vessel was never used, it’s actually still lying on the compound of Atommash in Volgodonsk.
Furthermore, transformers have been failing at NPPs in the West as well.
- maury91 6y agoThe point is not that they are using a broken reactor vessel, but that they tried to hide it. The construction of the plant was problematic, and it had several incidents while running. You can't trust a government that tries to cover up every incidents that happens and could have international repercussions.
