Rosatom completed tungsten qualification tests for ITER

At the Efremov Institute in St. Petersburg, specialists successfully welded and ultrasonically inspected tungsten first-wall tiles for the international thermonuclear reactor. Anatoly Krasilnikov, head of Rosatom's ITER Project Center, called this a critical step toward serial production.

Revival of Russian nuclear industry

Following the 2007 creation of Rosatom state corporation, Russia restored its global leadership in the full nuclear cycle. The government has approved plans to build 38 new power units by 2042, with 18 already under construction, surpassing Soviet-era achievements.
