Longevity for Sustainability

Long-term operation of NEK means sustainable use of space – the existing facility on small NEK area produces large quantity of electrical energy

Among all low carbon energy sources nuclear power plants produce the most electrical energy on smallest space. The space (area within the fence) which NEK uses for its operations is around 20 hectares, where it produces more than 5670 million of kWh of electrical energy per year. Other power plants need much more space for such production.
