Vienna, Sept. 24 (Xinhua) — The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) lost all external power supply on Tuesday, once again demonstrating persistent risks to nuclear safety.
As the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported on social media, this is the tenth such incident since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine began. A team of IAEA specialists is investigating the cause.
IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said later that day that emergency diesel generators at the plant had begun operating.
All six reactors at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) have been in cold shutdown mode since 2024, but still require water to cool the reactor cores and spent fuel pools. Before the conflict, the Zaporizhzhia NPP had 10 external power lines.
