It is noted that two transformers have failed at the NPP.

A source in the energy industry said that oil tanks in two high-voltage transformers exploded at the plant's substation due to overheating caused by the heat.

“Yes, the transformers did fail. They burned down. This had a further effect, and a 1,000 MW unit went offline. It was returned to the grid in a day. The main reason is the abnormal heat,” a source from the Servant of the People leadership told the publication.

However, Energoatom employees promptly eliminated the consequences of the accident during the day.
