MOSCOW, March 11. /TASS/. Rosatom is ready to work with Indonesia on the development of a small nuclear power plant (SNPP) - the necessary technologies were presented at a seminar in Bandung, Indonesia, organized by the Bandung Institute of Technology and the National Agency for Research and Innovation, according to the state corporation's press office.

More than 100 participants from 14 nations attended the conference, including IAEA representatives, regional countries, and vendors from China, Korea, the United States, and Europe. Russian experts briefed seminar attendees on Rosatom's unique experience operating low-power reactors, as well as potential technology. Representatives from Indonesian government agencies presented the country's nuclear energy growth plans, which are being driven in part by rising power consumption and aims to become carbon neutral.

"Indonesian colleagues discussed plans to construct the first nuclear power plants by 2032. Rosatom is ready to collaborate with the country across the entire spectrum of our energy offer, and we are confident that Rosatom's reference technologies, including nuclear power plants, can be a good solution for adding nuclear generation to Indonesia's energy mix," Rosatom's representative in Indonesia Anna Belokoneva said.

SNPP is one of the most promising sectors in the nuclear industry, with all major manufacturers working to develop their own solutions based on small modular reactor technology. Rosatom State Corporation has reference technologies for building low-power stations, both offshore and onshore. Rosatom's low-power projects provide electricity with a long-term predictable tariff for consumers. As a result, SNPP technologies are in high demand among major industrial users who take a responsible approach to selecting energy supply sources for their production facilities and territories of presence. The state corporation is implementing a project to build a unique ground-based nuclear power station in Yakutia, with a commissioning date of 2028. Rosatom is also developing designs for SVBR-100 reactor plants and implementing the Shelf-M microreactor project.
