Ukraine has a two-year supply of nuclear fuel and plans to start its production.

According to the President of Energoatom, Petro Kotin, the company is working with Westinghouse to create a production line of its fuel based on their technologies. The production of heads and shanks of fuel cartridges, which the American company has licensed, has already been established. Energoatom will produce half of its needs, and Westinghouse will supply the other half. Since the beginning of the war, Ukraine has stopped buying Russian nuclear fuel. Currently, Energoatom plans to switch all power units in Ukrainian nuclear power plants to Westinghouse fuel.
