Chyhyryn NPP (GRES)

Architecture

The complex of constructions of the unfinished power plant is located on the bank of the Dnipro near the village of Vitove to the east of Chyhyryn.

The decision to build the Chyhyryn GRES with a capacity of 4,800 thousand kW was made by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Ukraine in 1970. It was also planned to build a modern town of energy workers for 20,000 residents. By 1981, after repeated changes to the project, construction was frozen, but soon a decision was made to build a nuclear power plant on the finished site. Construction work was carried out until 1989, when, under public pressure, it was decided to stop construction.

Now the complex of the unfinished nuclear power plant together with the town of Orbita energy workers are abandoned ruins. Empty 9-story residential buildings, administrative buildings, shops and other infrastructure objects have been preserved. Here you can chat with people who still live on the territory of the former construction site, where they worked in Soviet times.
