Comment on Chornobyl Nuclear Plant loses power after Russian attack on nearby town, Energy Ministry says
HexadecimalSky@lemmy.world 3 days agoI cant say I have any intelligence, but it is my uneducated understanding power disruptions to the new safe confinement should be fine? It means they cant detect new problems, but the main confinement is made of concrete? and doesn’t “need” power?
Now, power cut to the active nuclear power plant, which seems to also be noted in this article, well, nuclear power plants need power to keep cool, and hearing a nuclear power plant relying on failing diesel generators to prevent a meltdown…or worse, that is concerning.
