Russia Builds Turkey's First Ever Nuclear Power Plant (Photos) by WriterNig(op): 8:27pm On Apr 19, 2023

🇹🇷 Türkiye's President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday that the first unit of Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant, Turkey's first ever Nuclear Power Plant is being constructed by Russia's state-owned Rosatom and will be completed by May 2023.

A total of 3,000 Russian engineers are working to complete the ⚛️ power plant.

Workers have lifted into place the fourth tier of the internal steel containment building shell at the Akkuyu-2 nuclear power station in Turkey, Russian state-owned nuclear power corporation Rosatom announced.

Rosatom said the component weighs about 140 tonnes and is eight metres high.

The next stage of construction will include the welding together of the third and fourth tiers.

The containment building shell will consist of 12 tiers when complete and will subsequently be covered in concrete and tested for hermetic tightness.

🇷🇺 Rosatom also said its subsidiary Atommash has manufactured and shipped the pressuriser for Akkuyu-2. The pressuriser is one of the largest components in a pressurised water reactor system. It maintains constant high pressure of 24.7 megapascals (Mpa) in the coolant loop to avoid water from boiling.

In September 2022, the reactor pressure vessel was installed at Akkuyu-2.

The $20bn (€18.2bn) Akkuyu, the first commercial nuclear power station in Turkey, is being built, owned and operated by 🇷🇺 Russia's Rosatom subsidiaries under a contract signed in 2010.

The station will have four Generation III+ VVER-1200 units, with the first expected to come online in 2023 and a further unit starting every year afterwards.

FYI Turkey is a NATO country.

Like for Russia-Putin, share for USA/Nazi/NATO
Turkiye have been trying to leave NATO and join the Shanghai Cooperation (SCO) which comprises Russia, Kazakhstan, China, Pakistan, India, and recently Iran.
In NATO, the US controls and bully everyone. Conversely, the Asian SCO respects Sovereignty of it's member states.

Turkiye are more aligned to Russia than they are to US. The main pact joining US and Turkiye is NATO and the Turks are actively trying to leave NATO for SCO upon attaining full membership. They are currently observer state in SCO.

It is amusing, funny and shocking to read some of those comments up there.
School no be scam ooo, as una dey sing about on a daily basis.
This is so disappointing to read all these nonsense and bs coming from adults in the society.
What a pity!


To the lay men out there that are ready to learn,
Let's dissect to you the meaning of Nuclear power plant...

What is the purpose of the nuclear power plant?

Nuclear energy can be used to create electricity, but it must first be released from the atom.
In the process of nuclear fission, atoms are split to release that energy.
A nuclear reactor, or power plant, is a series of machines that can control nuclear fission to produce electricity.


As you can see, it is only for electricity,
Not the drums of War, chaos and fear some people are bringing to your door already.

Ignorance is not a disease,
It's something worse...


They only read the headline and booom,
Nonsensical comments start....
Shuuooo

Re: Russia Builds Turkey's First Ever Nuclear Power Plant (Photos) by Nobody: 1:52pm On Apr 20, 2023
Nice one by Turkey. As long as they're not using it for weapons, it's a welcome development.

I think Nigeria should really consider getting a nuclear power plant if it can be maintained and properly secured. Not for weapons or anything, so it can be observed by international bodies if questions arise.

Also there should be a military base situated near it to prevent insurgents from attacking the facility.


I feel it's the only viable solution to the electricity challenges we have. We need something more powerful than hydroelectricity and gas. We can't develop properly if power supply still remains a challenge.

Slavic Russ

Long life Vladimir Putin

Donbass is Russia

Crimea is Russia

Taiwan is China

We now in a multipolar world. The U.S should get used to this new reality.


When it comes to fashion, we talking about the French.

When it comes to food, we talking about Italian.

When it comes to technology, automobile industry and physics, we talking about the Germans.

But

When it comes to WAR, we talking about the Russian.

Napoleon and Hitler couldn't defeat her; 31 countries (NATO) are so scared of her that they joined Forces to weaken it.

Slavic Russ.
