The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) announced on Saturday, June 6, that external power supply had been restored at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant following one of the longest blackouts.
The IAEA reported this on the social media platform X, according to Ukrinform.
“Off-site power was restored to the ZNPP this morning after a 15-hour outage, when the site had to rely on emergency diesel generators for electricity to cool its six shutdown reactors,” the statement said.
It is noted that this was the 18th loss of external power supply during the war, making it one of the longest.
