Nuclear power: Alliances strengthen atomic plan

Construction of floating NPP goes as planned
Russia is continuing work on its first floating nuclear power plant, which will supply electricity to remote regions of the Arctic. The facility is being protected against hull corrosion, according to Motorship's website. Such a plant can run for 40 years and need refueling only once every decade.
