"Rosatom" after completion of work at BelNPP intends to continue cooperation with Belarus at the highest level, and the state corporation has something to offer Minsk.
Alexey Likhachev, Director General of "Rosatom", personally announced to the president of the union republic Alexander Lukashenko his proposals. The conversation happened during the acceptance of BelNPP, which was built by "Rosatom", and is now taking it on a warranty service.
According to Likhachev, "Rosatom" can help establish in Belarus:
- gigafactory. Production of lithium-ion batteries in Russia already exists, as well as key electronic components for electric transport. Some Belarusian production sites are already supplied with Russian batteries, but full localization of them in Belarus is proposed;
- a nuclear medicine center;
- a center of additive technologies;
- alliances in the field of wind energy;
- projects on industrial waste processing.
There are prospects for the development of cooperation in other areas, including industry and digital technologies. Likhachev noted that together with the Belarusian side, it is expected to prepare a project of intergovernmental memorandum and programs in these areas.
