Bulgaria will replace Russian nuclear fuel at its nuclear power plant for the first time. Previously, the Kozloduy NPP used exclusively Russian fuel. The last time the fifth power unit was refueled was last spring. There are a total of two reactors operating at the facility. For the sixth power unit, fuel will be supplied by Framatome, a subsidiary of the French energy giant EDF. The first batch of tapes will go to Bulgaria in 2026. The country will completely abandon Russian nuclear fuel in 2029. The management of the Bulgarian nuclear power plant Kozloduy will carry out the first refueling with nuclear fuel from the United States in May this year.
