Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant reconnects to Ukraine's grid after blackout

pravda.com.ua (Ukrainian) —

Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant restored external power supply on the evening of November 8 via the 330 kV "Ferroalloy-1" line, reconnecting to Ukraine's energy grid. The plant had experienced a complete blackout earlier that night. Energoatom confirmed the line was switched on at 17:41, but warned the situation remains extremely dangerous. While the plant is under occupation, threats of power outages and risks to nuclear and radiation safety persist. This blackout was the 16th at the plant this year. A recent Greenpeace Ukraine investigation indicated Russia is deliberately disabling Zaporizhzhia's power supply lines.
