Скачать или смотреть Floating nuclear power stations and their prospects

Academician Lomonosov is a floating nuclear power plant developed by the Russian Rosatom corporation. The large non-self-propelled power barge is equipped with two nuclear reactors.

The concept of use of such power plants lies in the possibility of mooring a barge on the shore near a city or industrial facility and providing the consumers with electric and thermal energy. At the same time, power plants can be built in series at a factory, and the place of use needs only minimal infrastructure, which gives such a solution flexibility and good prospects.
The project, of course, has critics, who point out both the excessive cost of energy and the potential environmental hazard.
In this video, we will try to study Lomonosov and find out what its prospects are.

Thanks you for watching!
