Structure and technical data

OL1 and OL2 can each be divided into three structural entities: the reactor building, the turbine building, and the auxiliary buildings.

The highest building at both units is the reactor building enclosing the reactor containment. The reactor is inside the containment. The reactor hall, at the top of the building, contains the reactor pool and fuel pools, pools for reactor internals, a reactor service bridge for refueling operations, and an overhead crane.

The turbine building houses the high pressure and low pressure turbines, generator, exciter, and condensers. There is one HP turbine and four LP turbines. The auxiliary buildings include the waste building and the hot workshop.
