In addition, first concrete has also been poured for the foundation plate of the unit\u2019s turbine building.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>St Petersburg-based AtomEnergoProekt (SPb AEP), which is acting as the principal contractor, announced on 15\u00a0April that it had begun pouring concrete for the foundation of the second unit at the Leningrad II plant. The company said that, in total, some 5000\u00a0cubic metres of concrete will be used in the reactor\u2019s foundation plate. The pouring of concrete for the first unit at Leningrad II took some eight months to complete.<\/p>\n<p>First concrete was also poured on the same day for the first of six sections of the foundation plate for the turbine building of the second units at Leningrad II. Construction is being conducted by Titanstroymontazh, a subsidiary of Titan-2. Some 1850\u00a0cubic metres of concrete and over 700\u00a0tonnes of reinforcement iron will be used in the first section of the foundation, which is 925\u00a0square metres in area. In total, some 3000\u00a0tonnes of iron and more than 12,000\u00a0tonnes of concrete will be needed to complete all six sections. The concreting of the turbine building for the first unit at Leningrad II took five months to complete.<\/p>\n<p>A construction licence was issued in July 2009\u00a0to plant owner Energoatom for the second unit at Leningrad II by Russian nuclear regulator Rostekhnadzor. The construction licence for the first reactor of Leningrad II was issued in June 2008. The first two units will be of the new AES-2006\u00a0model VVER pressurised water reactor (PWR) design. The first of the 1170\u00a0MWe reactors is scheduled for commissioning in October 2013\u00a0and the second in 2016. These AES-2006\u00a0units are expected to be built at a cost of some $3.0\u20133.7\u00a0billion per pair. Leningrad II would eventually boast four AES-2006\u00a0reactors.<\/p>\n<p>The Leningrad plant is currently home to four operating 1000\u00a0MWe RBMK reactors, all of which are nearing the end of their operating lives. A construction contract for Leningrad II was signed with SPb AEP in August 2007\u00a0and site licences granted the following month. AtomEnergoProekt signed a 136\u00a0billion rouble ($5.8\u00a0billion) state contract in March 2008\u00a0for the construction of first two new units at Leningrad II. In addition to supplying electricity, each of the new reactors will provide 1.05\u00a0TJ\/hr (9.17\u00a0PJ\/yr) of district heating.<\/p>\n<p>AtomEnergoProekt began pouring the concrete for the foundation plate of the reactor building of the first new unit at the Leningrad II plant in October 2008. That foundation plate was completed in June 2009.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first concrete has been poured for the foundation plate of the second unit at phase two of the Leningrad nuclear power plant (Leningrad II).
