"At the moment, the unit is in the state of commissioning. We are carrying out a sequence of actions towards its commercial use. Nuclear fuel has been loaded. That is, we have already passed the stage of physical launch," Olga Lugovskaya said.
According to her, a permit has already been issued for the start-up of the unit. "This is where we are now. It is assumed that the unit will be put into commercial operation by the end of the year," she said.
