The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) has lost its external power supply and is now fully reliant on diesel generators. The plant has a sufficient fuel reserve for these generators, according to the director of communications.
The Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) lost off-site power after its 330 kV Ferrosplavnaya-1 line was disconnected. Backup diesel generators were activated normally, with no security disruptions reported. Radiation levels remain normal.
The Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) lost off-site power for 20 minutes overnight due to a drone strike on the Nikopolskaya substation, the IAEA reported. Emergency generators kicked in until the power line was restored, highlighting the "constant dangers to nuclear safety during the war."
A drone strike on Sunday cut off external power to reactor no 3 at the UAE's Barakah nuclear plant for 24 hours, forcing reliance on emergency generators. The UAE attributed the attack to a pro-Iranian proxy group originating from Iraq, raising global concerns about nuclear safety during wartime.
Residents in three Australian cities are opposing the rapid expansion of datacentres near residential areas, citing concerns over noise, environmental impact, and inadequate planning processes. The M3 datacentre in West Footscray, Melbourne, is set to double in size by 2027, while similar facilities are proposed in Sydney's Lane Cove and Perth's Hazelmere. Local councils say they have been sidelined in approval processes, while industry argues datacentres are critical for Australia's digital future.
