5:11Now PlayingRussia and Uzbekistan on Thursday began construction of a nuclear power plant in Uzbekistan, the first of its kind in post-Soviet Central Asia, the Kremlin said, to help meet the growing regional demand for power. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev oversaw the start of the construction via video link from St Petersburg where they held talks on the sidelines of Putin's flagship annual economic forum, the Kremlin said late on Thursday.
The project is located in Uzbekistan's central-eastern Jizzakh Region, which borders both Tajikistan and Kazakhstan. The plant design combines two types of nuclear reactors: two large units with capacity to produce about 1,000 megawatts each and two small modular reactors that each generate about 55 megawatts. The nuclear power plant, expected to meet around 15% of Uzbekistan's power demand, is being constructed by the Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom using Russian technology, including small modular reactors, and a loan, Putin said.
