ARMENIAN APP TO BE SUSPENDED FOR PLANNED AND PREVENTIVE REPAIR ON OCTOBER 1 2005
YEREVAN, AUGUST 31. ARMINFO. The Armenian atomic power plant will be
suspended for annual planned and preventive repair on October 1 2005,
Director General of APP Gagik Markosyan informs ARMINFO.
He says the power unit of APP consisting of a reactor and two
turbines will be suspended for 45 days in conformity with a relevant
schedule. In 45 days after the suspension the first turbine will be
connected to the power network of the country, the second turbine will
be connected in 10 days after the first one. Director General says
as of August 30 the Armenian APP generated 2.042 vlb kW/h electricity.
It should be noted that two power units of Russian model BBP-440,
with capacity of 815 megawatt in total have been installed at the
Armenian APP. The first unit was put into exploitation in 1976, the
second in 1980. At the beginning of 1989, the plant was closed down for
political ideas, and then the second unit was reactivated because of
acute energy crisis at the beginning of 1995. The resource of the unit
will limit in 2016. In September 2003 the Armenian APP was transferred
under financial management of the Inter RJSC UES of Russia for 5 years.
