Russia’s nuclear regulator Rostekhnadzor has issued a license to Rusatom Overseas allowing it to carry out nuclear construction work and provide services on nuclear sites, parent company Rosatom said.
Rusatom Overseas, Rosatom’s foreign business division, applied for the licence as part of a project for construction of a land-based small modular reactor unit inYakutia.
Rosatom confirmed reports late last year that Russia is planning to build a land-based SMR in Yakutia, also known as Sakha, an autonomous republic 4,000 km to the east of Moscow, between Siberia and Russia’s far east.
