The Energy Strategy of Ukraine for the period until 2030 foresees that about half of the Ukrainian NPP units will constitute those with extended lifetime (long term operation) over the next 10 years. The first “pilot” plants for long-term operation were Rivne units 1 and 2 (VVER-440/213) in 2010. South Ukraine NPP unit 1 (VVER-1000/V-302) is the next step in gaining long-term operation experience in Ukraine (appropriate decision was made in 2012). In both cases, the decision was preceded by many-year comprehensive activities performed by the operator, regulator and national and international scientific and technical support organizations, which were involved in safety justification from the operator and regulator sides.
