The release presents the company’s account of the meeting; it is not an independent audit or a detailed register of all plant events.","The meeting’s safety discussion covered the use of surveillance cameras, machine vision and some artificial-intelligence tools at Russian nuclear plants. Rosatom said algorithms can review recorded workplace video, flag deviations and send them to specialists for prompt response. The announcement does not disclose system coverage, false-alert rates, accidents prevented or a measured safety effect, so the stated technology use should not be treated as an outcome measure.","Officials also discussed preparations for the autumn-winter demand peak, reliable equipment operation and the technical resources of training centres. Rosenergoatom says it operates 10 active nuclear stations; its 34 power units have combined capacity of about 29.8 GW and account for about 19% of Russia’s electricity generation.

It gave a Russian nuclear fleet capacity-use factor of 87.22% for that year. Those figures provide a year-earlier benchmark for the October 2026 forecast, but they are not directly comparable to the 2026 nine-month interim update because one is a full-year consolidated result and the other does not disclose the nine-month volume. The 220 billion kWh figure in the October statement is a forecast floor for full-year generation. It should not be described as already achieved or as a precise like-for-like year-on-year increase.","The October meeting also discussed video analytics used to identify workplace-safety deviations. Rosatom says archived video streams can be processed rapidly and alerts sent to relevant specialists. It does not state how many sites use the video system, how many alerts prove actionable or whether the system has prevented an injury. The release therefore describes tools and operating procedures rather than a measured safety outcome. It distinguishes this application from the operator’s broader responsibility: management responsibility for plant safety remains assigned to people, and the company says that responsibility is reinforced by law.
