history

Construction of the Gorki core heating plant, planned in 1980, began in 1983. It was to be a twin construction with two AST reactors . Due to public protests, the plant could not be completed after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster (1986). Shortly after the referendum in Voronezh regarding the Voronezh nuclear heating plant under construction , the construction project was finally stopped at the end of the 1980s. Another reason was that the city already had enough heating capacity. The heating plant components that were no longer required were used for the nuclear reactors of the Tomsk nuclear facility . The building is currently rented to a large number of companies.
