The Novovoronezhskaya nuclear power station (Russian: Нововоронежская АЭС) is a nuclear power station in close proximity to Novovoronezh in Voronezh Oblast, central Russia. The site was vital to the development of the VVER design, every unit built was essentially a prototype of its design.
| Unit [1] | Type | First criticality |
|---|---|---|
| Novovoronezh - 1 | WWER-440/210 (prototype) | ? |
| Novovoronezh - 2 | WWER-440/365 (prototype) | 23.12.1969 |
| Novovoronezh - 3 | WWER-440/179 | 22.12.1971 |
| Novovoronezh - 4 | WWER-440/179 | 25.12.1972 |
| Novovoronezh - 5 | WWER-1000/187 (prototype) | 30.04.1980 |
| Novovoronezh - 6 | AES-2006/WWER-1200 (prototype) | (future) |
It is one of the few sites in the world that has reactors undergoing decommissioning, operating, and under construction.
