Saying Rosatom is a huge is an understatement. What they make, what they control is absolutely massive. From satellites to Fusion Energy Development. Rosatom does it all.
Кстати, можете посмотреть на прототип электромобиля, который Росатом готовит к производству - "АТОМ". На сколько я понял, производство будет направлено в первую очередь для каршеринговых компаний. Говорят, что в серию пойдут в 2024-2025, если, конечно, не случится никаких "негативных обстоятельств". Кстати, производить их будут скорее всего на заводах "ушедших" европейских автопроизводителей.

Rosatom is 10-20 years ahead of its competitors in terms of technology. They can enrich Uranium for the 235th isotope from the waste left by other companies. extract much more from natural uranium than all the others. Rosatom has the only fast neutron reactors on the planet, where more fuel is produced than is loaded. Rosatom is building the world's first reactor where the entire fuel cycle will be closed within one nuclear power plant. Rosatom has the only floating nuclear power plants on the planet, which, like a nuclear battery, it installed for 10 years, and when it worked out, it was replaced.
Working fast neutron reactor which is in production, not research, and has really large power. Whole West wasn't able to come with something like that. There are some "Gen 4" reactors, but they are on drawing boards, while Russian is fully operational for some 7 years. Apple and oranges comparison.

"So what do you think will Russia continue to lead the rest of the nuclear industry or will new designs and Technology shift the balance of power." In terms of nuclear energy new designs and Technology is also in Russia. Russia is the only country in the world that successfully operates industrial fast neutron reactors BN-600 and BN-800. And at the moment, the first serial industrial reactor BN-1200 is being prepared for construction. All that Western countries are capable of is the use of methods of unfair competition - sanctions, restrictions, political and economic pressure on Russia itself or its current or potential partners. For this it is not shameful to ignite several wars on the border with Russia, if possible. The only problem is that the sense of one's own exclusivity does not make it clear that Russia can give a tough reaction to such discrimination.
Problematically for Russia, none of these sanctions existed until the Russians invaded Ukraine. They would have been better off to do nothing, and many countries might hesitate given Russia's willingness to use its control over energy against other nations. That alone might turn off some nations.

Я как житель Дагестана, Российской Федерации могу сказать следующее. Санкции практически не повлияли на Россию. Что пострадала от санкций это автомобилистроение . До 2022 года в России в основном были Европейские, Японские, Корейские и Американские заводы . Российские АвтоВАЗ, КамАз, ГАЗ и Урал . Китайские товарищи в этом нам помогают. Китайские автомобили очень хорошие . До санкций не знал , что у Китая крутые автомобили, которые превосходят некоторые западные бренды. Китайские бренды уже заняли 40% нашего рынка . В России хорошо продавались Рено, Киа, Хендай, Вольсваген, Шкода. Они по своей вине потеряли этот рынок. У нас сейчас хорошие отношения с Ираном очень много товаров идут из Ирана . Фрукты Иранские очень сочные и вкусные . Раньше возили из Европы Италия , Испания, Португалия, Греция, Болгария. Сейчас из Ирана, Турции, Узбекистан, Туркменистан, Египет, Китай , Вьетнам. И российские товары полно в магазинах. Раньше такого не было . Так ваши санкции можете засунуть себе в одно место.

But in order to join EU, sadly Lithuania gave up its healthy nuclear and accepted EU money to shut it down... Since then things got worse... Much worse in Visaginas town...
Big bad Soviets gave you nuclear power, education and jobs that would sustain your people in the future. Good EU and friends over the Atlantic gave your government officials money that they can pocket and made you get rid of your already existing infrastructure that provided jobs and sustainability. Not to mention modern Russia that would be more than happy to continue providing services that you lost after the fall of the USSR. Maybe its time to wake up and look at things with a clear view and you will start to notice who is your friend and who is just acting like it for personal gain.
The Russian giant also monopolizes the nuclear fusion giant magnet export. In November 2022, the French company EDF recieved such giant magnet from the Rosatom despite sanctions.The Russian-made magnet, or "poloidal field coil" weigh 200-tonne and nine-metre-wide. The coil had been tightly wrapped to withstand the two-week trip to Marseille in the south of France where 35 nations are collaborating to build the largest nuclear fusion device in the world.

Russia is building real infrastructure in and improving people's lives.the USSR built the Naglu hydroelectric power station in Afghanistan in 1968 which supplies electricity to 100,000 homes, also USSR Built the Kabul Polytechnic Institute in 1963 and many other infrastructure objects. But you're unlikely to find a US-built power plant or university in Afghanistan or Iraq. This is one of the reasons why in the countries of Africa and Asia, Russia was perceived as a fighter against the colonial forces of the West, and many flags depict the Ak47 as a symbol of the struggle of the colonies for freedom.
To begin with, Rosatom is much more than you stated. Rosatom is engaged in advanced scientific developments. Rosatom is: space satellites, additive technologies, management of the Northern Sea Route, composite materials, hydrogen technologies and much more. Rosatom launched a fast neutron reactor and is working on a closed cycle technology. Rosatom mastered the production of floating reactors. Now, for example, Malaysia can order a power plant for rent. Rosatom plans to launch mini-reactors for small facilities, such as remote villages in the far north or a remote island. Rosatom not only enriches half of the world's nuclear fuel, it does it many times cheaper. Problems with European partners arose much earlier than the start of the NWO. This is not difficult to verify. This is the usual unfair competition from America. In violation of the treaties, before the start of the war, they already tried to switch to American fuel. What kind of competition can we talk about if Rosatom builds 2 times cheaper and 2 times faster? Well - the Europeans are no strangers. In the end, they buy American gas regardless of the price. True, there are doubts about how long their industry will last with such prices?
Like you mentioned, Rosatom does more than I listed here. However, it's a 17 minute video and I can't fit it all in, so it focuses on the core nuclear parts that are most comparable to European and American companies. Cheaper and faster and more reliable with the schedule. Countries that are selecting others have different reasons than cost: political, security, domestic markets to satisfy, etc. Nuclear energy is often not about the lowest price, it can be used as a lever for or against governments. Western companies generally aren't competitive on price. But Russia also sells to countries that can't afford it through government loans. If American companies had access to government financing in the same way, the landscape would be very different in developing countries. But they don't, so it is the way it is, unfair or not. Cheers!
@@atomicblender The thought is correct. Accents are placed incorrectly. If you look at the bigger picture, it is easy to see that America claims to be a fighter for the freedom of the market. America is a stronghold of non-violation of private property. The West is the realm of justice and the rule of law, and so on. What are we actually seeing? When necessary, we cancel the secrecy of deposits, freeze accounts, and persecute citizens of other countries for our own reasons. We have no problem withdrawing from trade agreements. We make our own rules for everyone. The American plan to fight inflation - what is this if not a blatant violation of WTO rules? Using your rhetoric about national interests, the United States acts everywhere: from the arms market, the energy market, the electronics market, the food market, etc. Have you forgotten that the zone of American interests extends to the entire Earth? If you forgot - look at the location of military bases. All of them are located along trade routes. Why is China's One Belt One Road program declared hostile? Because these are not controlled routes. about government funding. The US government, only for the development of technology for producing nuclear fuel, has allocated 15 billion dollars. As far as I know - money in the sand. Who is printing $5 trillion a year? Then Putin is to blame for inflation? Open your eyes - all this fuss is not for the sake of security, not for the sake of democracy and progress. Today, international financial capital (globalists) are fighting for the right to command the World and spit on everyone, including Europeans and Americans. This is not a conspiracy theory at all. It's just that today the Democrats represent the interests of bankers and work off the money invested in them. Their main task is to keep the dominance of the dollar, and all sorts of technologies are side problems.

The United States was the first to test a nuclear bomb and used it against enemy civilians. The USSR was the first to launch a nuclear power plant. This information is enough to understand the policy and vector of development of these countries for many decades to come!
It wasn't targeted at civilians it was targeted at the infrastructure and the Support for their regime Which clearly they worked Considering Russia was so scared they also invaded japan And illegally occupied japanese territory

Putin attacks imprisons homosexuals for having sex with each other, which is nobody else's business, doesn't hurt anybody else. Putin attacks imaginary "satanists". Satanists are no worse than any other religionist, but in fact far far better. Satanists don't destroy children's minds with lies and falsehoods like PragerU, denying history and reality such as evolution and anthropogenic global warming (AGW). Putin illegally invaded Ukraine, in violation of Ukraine's laws, and forced Russians against their will to murder Ukrainians, even though it is NONE of Putin's business if other Russians want to support HIS cause or not.
Japanese civilians were even more fanatically rightwing conservative racist nationalist pieces of excrement than even antiCommunist Americans at the time. They violently forced other Japanese civilians to fight in a war whether they wanted to or not.

1:25 The real percentage, if you dig deeper, is many times higher and in fact most of the uranium in the US is Russian uranium. Why? To do this, you can simply look at the owners of uranium deposits and their subsidiaries. The uranium in Kazakhstan is effectively owned and mined by Russia, and most recently, the government of Kazakhstan approved the transfer of ownership interests in the three largest uranium deposits located in the country, which were managed by Uranium One Inc., by a resolution. And now the most interesting thing about Uranium One Inc. according to papers, this is a company registered in Canada, but it is only a corporate structure of Rosatom and is wholly owned by it. The Russian corporation, through its "Canadian representative" office, owned shares in Kazakh uranium mines, which, from the point of view of international law, made it easy to fight off all accusations of trying to monopolize the market. In the realities of 2023, such trifles are no longer particularly relevant, and, in fact, Russia has finally established itself in the status of the world's main producer of fuel uranium. Therefore, the real percentage of uranium that the United States buys from Russia is most likely somewhere around 40-45% of the total. The same picture with the monopolization of uranium mining by Rosatom is now observed in Uzbekistan (the representative of the CIS, in fact, is completely sitting on the budget of the RF), Namibia, Niger and a number of other African countries (Wagner group accidentally squeezed the French out of Africa COPIUM).
Two year ago Europe was getting most of their gas and oil from Russia, it only took one year to totally replace Russian gas. Now the price of gas in many European countries is at the same level it was before the war. How many time before the west find new ways to get Uranium ? Or maybe rosatom is 100 years in the futur and the west can never replace them ?
@@ni9274 Russian gas and oil cannot be replaced in Europe. Russia can be sanctioned, that just means that russian gas and oil gets into Europe from third actors like India and China.

You naive summer child didnt really think that american and middle eastern LNG and Norway did replace Russia, did you lol? Sad reflection on western media and intelligence of its population.
@@ni9274 Do you seriously believe that the gas and oil that is now supplied to Europe is not Russian gas and oil? =)) Yes, of course, according to the contracts, it goes like Indian, Hungarian, Norwegian, and sometimes even British and US with an extra charge of two or three times. In fact, this gas or oil is in most cases produced in Russia, delivered from Russia through intermediary companies that mix it 49/50 with any other and sell it as their "clean" and "democratic" gas or oil product. I understand that "insider" is not the best example in the argument, but even they write about it "The EU is buying up Russian liquefied natural gas at the highest level in 3 years, think tank says". "Russia is still a major source of LNG, particularly as the continent still runs the risk of an energy crisis in the winter of 2023, according to International Energy Agency chief Fatih Birol. " etc If you really want to drop into the topic of how Europe itself bypasses its own sanctions, then this is not a problem the Internet is full of information on this matter. Any talk that the EU has abandoned Russian gas and oil has nothing to do with reality. All that the EU can do is to buy the same Russian gas at a price 3 or 4 times more expensive, but already from outbidders who bought it from Russia, having received the same Russian gas as a result. What is most "ridiculous" is that such schemes turned out to be even more profitable for Russia in terms of price and volume than when the EU countries bought this gas and oil directly from Russia. For the second year in a row, sales of oil and gas from Russia are breaking records in terms of volume and profit.
Europeans has sign contracts with American westinghouse, but the westinghouse itself can't supply even US. In fact westinghouse will just buy the same Rosatom fuel and resell it to Europeans making a high margin on them. Good job America!
Russia has no interest in harming others, as the West does, but only mutually beneficial cooperation with other countries. These countries understand that they are acquiring a very reliable partner in the person of Russia, in a wide variety of projects for many decades, and not a slave trader who imposes only his interests through blackmail, threats, false accusations in the international arena, the destruction of entire countries, etc.

Now I'm not saying things would be perfect and peaceful were they not involved at all, but I would say I do believe they would be 90% more stable and decently developing, yes. Russia has its own agenda no doubt but let's look at the root cause to a lot of this mess. And if you go all the way back to even before 1989 what do you see? You see constant shenanigans from the District of Columbia. I won't say they've caused everything but they're at the root of a LOT of it. DC has had a hard-on for destabilizing Russia since 1946 and until they stop there is always going to be some kind of conflict or tension in the region.
First of all this is not the first nuclear reactor in Bangladesh, Bangladesh already had a small research reactor since the 1980s. It is the first power reactor though. Large mega projects like this, usually take decades and nearly always go above budget. But Russia has managed to do well by being on budget and time. The Russian engineers are also liked in Bangladesh, with many applying to stay on long term contracts to support the plant.
Rosatom is not a new corporation in 2007, only legally according to the documents. In reality, it was based on the property of the mysterious and secret Ministry of Medium Machine Building of the USSR and Russia, which also owned completely secret cities. The main achievement and secret of Rosatom is a cheap and reliable technology of gas centrifuges for uranium-235 enrichment, which allows it to dominate this market, as well as a focus on processing all types of nuclear waste.
It's because in USSR everything related to Nuclear technology was under control of mentioned ministry. However, after the dissolution of USSR, many factories and companies have become independant. Rosatom was created as a huge corporation that controls civilian nuclear technology in Russia and it's main goal is to earn money, unlike the Ministry of Medium Machine Building which main goal was creating and supervising military nuclear technologies. Nowadays this task is fully carried out by the Ministry of Defense, which then gives out contracts to various Russian goverment corporations, not necessary Rosatom. For example, today famous ICBM Sarmat is being produced on the Roscosmos Krasmash factory, which was part of the Minitry of General Machine Building during USSR. Some parts for it are made in Rosatom factories, some parts are made in Rostech factories, etc... So, overall, while Rosatom is a recreation of Ministry of Medium Machine Building from USSR in some wat, it's not quite alike and has different goals, hierarchy, structure and etc...

We make our own rules in the west and hold ourselves to a separate standard than others. Rules for thee but not for me.

Government sanctioned bigotry and racism of an ethnic group, including innocent civilians. Rhetoric from our political leaders make no distinction between government and civilians and don't hide they want to harm civilians while others fetishize about erasing Russia off the map. War sucks and always brings out the worst in people.
Nazi Ukraine has been killing civilians in Eastern Ukraine for 9 years since the CIA under Obama installed the Puppet Zelinski using a violent overthrow.

inappropriate remarks about the technological lag... Currently, Rosatom is a technological leader and is ahead of other countries in developing a closed fuel cycle

I love how americans manage to discreetly denigrate a competitor -- "Rosatom reactors don`t really offer any significant trchnical advantage over other designs and in many cases may actually be behind". Dear sir, please, provide us with specific example of such a case. Of course you won't, because the facts do not matter now, only the influencer's opinion matters.
As a resident of Donbass, who, after the 2014 coup, fled from Ukrainian bombings and killings of civilians, and also suffered from Ukrainian military crimes for 8 years, it is simply impossible to hear about the "invasion" of Russia.

The author should know that Rosatom's reactors are the most advanced and perfect in the whole world, other countries do not even have such technologies close, this is another reason for dominance. It is unlikely that someone will be able to catch up with Rosatom, taking into account the development of 4th generation reactors (thermonuclear).
5:51 The technological growth is much higher than any other companies, the new top 1200 is designed from scratch and all simulations of different situations have been carried out, Rosatom has also improved the chemical composition of nuclear fuel, and a new version of the turbine will be built. Also, a fast neutron reactor has already been developed and is being tested, the only working copy in the world that will close the nuclear fuel tank in the future. There is no need to talk about the technological lag over the years, ROSATOM has greatly surpassed all major competitors.

@Philip Well, all was coming from the heart of USSR and majority of the first scientists. Ukraine was simply the place used for the projects so please do not draw unfactual links to something that is nothing to do with what Ukraine claims it is.
A lot of this does happen most of the time. Russia supplies America with rocket engines and the nuclear fusion program with giant magnets. Taiwan produces microchips but the ever decreasing size is a product of Dutch machinery and the designs are often American. Network infrastructure from China and telephones from Scandinavia and so on. I think you are rather out of date with your assessment of Western education.
@Philip Ukraine did not exist at the time, and neither did Russia. USSR is an entirely different beast. After transition to capitalism, both countries pretty much went to shit in terms of education. It's still relatively good, especially mathematics and science, but it's a shadow of the USSR that in decline for 30 years.

Wow this was fascinating. Awesome video. I never knew about any of this (nuclear is always shaded in a bit of secrecy) but given Russia's history of scientific, nuclear and industrial output it makes sense. Why doesn't our government do something similar? Like an Amtrak or NASA equivalent but for nuclear services. Merge a few private sector companies that do the things Rosatom does, revise laws that impede trade, implementation and sales and form a new government backed corporation. That's what they did for Amtrak and it saved passenger train service which were one by one going out of business in the 70s because of the oil crisis and jet airplanes. It could be a great political tool as well for the United States. Especially in western allied countries. Clearly the infrastructure and partnership strategy China and Russia use in the developing "global south" are highly influential there and a win-win for both parties. If our leaders were smart they'd do something similar instead of bickering about nonsense all the time. Create a new hybrid private-government backed company to compete -- because no offense to our French friends but they just don't have the resources or means of scale to compete with Rosatom. At this level only the US or China could compete. Given that Westinghouse seems to be a big player in this field, the federal government should start with them. Had no idea Westinghouse was even still around let alone relevant anymore. They used to make everything from air brakes to home appliances and consumer electronics and have sort of fallen off the map. Who know nuclear plants were their bread and butter. You learn something new everyday. Awesome video! Subscribed!
Thanks for the feedback (and subscribe!) I think there could be consideration for a public-private partnership with large US nuclear companies, but anything more than that and it's a hard sell. Actions that could be seen as a state takeover of a company would be cried at as either a bailout or nationalization of the industry, neither of which is probably politically appealing. The US government has generally supported export of US reactors and is willing to help out in negotiations (check out the long discussions with India on nuclear liability). Cheers!
Even then, no country with a right mind would voluntarily rely on the west for any critical infrastructure. Russia has proven to be a reliable partner for agreements even in crisis.
@@atomicblender man, the American government in 2014 carried out an armed coup d'état in Ukraine, spending, according to Victoria Nuland, 5 billion dollars of budget money on it, installed a puppet occupation administration in Kiev, pumped it up with weapons and threw it to the East - but you say that it was Russia that OCCUPIED Ukraine , and it was Russia that STARTED the war? Are you a student of Goebbels? You know, Putin didn't call the US the "Empire of Lies" for nothing - you just proved it.
@@alexgainsborough4921 greetings from Russia! :) C'mon this video is not about politics, but about technologies and a little about the economy. You are completely right about the causes of this tragedy (and it's really cool that you're so knowledgeable!), but even what you have listed is only the tip of the iceberg (there are much more reasons and I can't write about half of them here because of the UA-cam policy). No one can know everything, and now it is much more important to maintain ties in technology, science, culture and so on (because we live on the same planet) than to be distracted by what potentially separates us. So I have no complaints against the author, because everything else in the video was correct and truthful. Moreover, if the author had said otherwise, he would have been accused of working for Putin :) So it's better for people to learn about the real achievements of my country - this can be the first step in order to overcome the imposed stereotypes.

This is a nice video but I strongly disagree that the design or safety features of the nuclear reactors build in Russia are in any way inferior to the western designs, I'm not an expert but I conclude this from what I have read about this topic in specialized sites, including the IAEA, etc. I would like to know what sources apart from western bias you have to say that their design is inferior to what the west produces?

A minor point about the Hinkley C you mentioned, while the strike price was huge back at the start of the project, it's now significantly cheaper than gas. Various studies have shown, however, that if the British and French governments had just loaned the money directly rather than through backing commercial loans, the project costs could have been nearly halved.
Fair point, the somewhat fixed strike price I remember being outrageously high. Gas in the UK has surged since then so it's much more reasonable now. But even then, it's higher than a lot of other places. I hadn't seen the direct loan vs loan guarantee difference you mentioned, I'll have to look into that, it sounds interesting. Cheers!
@@atomicblender It's not just whole sale gas prices, the whole energy market has become rather more expensive for a variety of factors, with underinvestment in generating capacity and over reliance on EU grid connectors being significant. Wholesale energy prices have come down from their peak, but with average £/MWh being £>120 looking like the new stable, even the hideously mismanaged and overpriced Hinkley looks like a bargain. I suppose my point was, it was mismanaged, misfinanced, misdesigned, misrepresented, publicly maligned and weathered a pandemic, yet it *still* manages to be a better financial option than CCGT for large non-intermittent generation.
@@atomicblender I don't understand, do you live on another planet? By introducing all these energy packages, Europe interfered in commercial relations. Gazprom has received many lawsuits in which long-term contracts were backdated. How to plan investments in such a situation? How to take loans? The next step - at the suit of Poland, Gazprom paid 3 billion and was obliged to trade not under long-term contracts, but through the stock exchange. The calculation was simple - the pipes are lying, it is necessary to blow through, and we will form the prices. Achieved! Well done! Now the price of gas is not tied to the price of oil. Now you can speculate with gas! But Gazprom did not come to the stock exchange. Strange, right? Why does Gazprom not want to bring down the price and sell cheaper? Just amazing. What to do? Correctly impose sanctions!! Well, Well .. Smile and wave ....
Thank you for being very informative without stating any unnecessary political opinions. This is what I look for in UA-cam! This is why true educational content is like
Thanks for the video 👍🏻 All numbers in place and statistics is pretty accurate. I'am fully agree with facts and your logic. It's worth to mention, that ROSATOM even use different CPU Elbrus that was invanted in Russia and of course operation system is different. I mean, they are really using cutting the age technologies.
Hi and thank you for a nuclear blog on yt! I am supplying nuclear related valves and pumps for Rosatom projects for many years. Your overview seems correct, but I want to add some details: - Rosatom can make most of the critical NPP equipment by their own, but some important elements are still out of their range: turbines, APCS are the most painful parts now, due to the sanctions. - New NPPs are coming up: you mentioned Egypt, but also there going to be new units for Kursk, Smolensk and Leningrad inside, another NPPs in Turkey and India, Hungary is still on board. - Rosatom operates the northern seaway and building 3 new icebreakers and 4 new floating NPPs right now. Floating NPPs is unique and planned to be offered for foreign countries. - Small modular NPPs, which are popular worldwide are also developing. They are going to build prototypeNPP of that type in Yakutistan.
Very good video, to say the least! I would like to add that all these traits come from the fact that RosAtom is, what i like to call it, "a soviet union of corporations", and by that i mean that there are hundreds of different corporations, factories and construction bureaus that work under the same command and for the same goal, not confronting but complementing eachother in production of numerous parts of nuclear powerplants and other related things. This means that whichever company or bureau ivents anything important, RosAtom and most of it's companies it consists of get to use the fruits of this invention. Plus no matter who gets governmental grants and for what reason - it will always benefit the mother company RosAtom the same (obviously to some degree, but still). Also it's just easier to coordinate literally half of best production companies and institutes if they all are parts of one big corporation. There are also two more of these major "Corporational USSRs" - RosKosmos and RosTech, and they share the composition structure and command traits with RosAtom, but do different things (obviously they collaborate to maximum possible degree, but this is where fighting for money start). RosKosmos manages all that is related to space program, and RosTech, the least developed of these triad, manages various technological productions and construction bueraus, mostly related to electronics. It's their job to make Russia a competitor in the computer chips race and to replace imported components with homemade onesin basically everything, and given how much less of soviet tech base they got compared to the RosAtom and RosKosmos they had to start almost from zero. And it looks like some progress was acheved by their hands. We'll see how effective they will prove themselves in near future...
Because Western modern counties care about the nuclear waste. Shitty poor counties, doesn’t care about that 😂 They are like: We can only think about on day ahead…
Jokes aside, Rosatom also build mini nuclear power plants, which are way cheaper tham normal ones and are affordable by price not only to giant corporation. So they are very popular in poor countries
No western country would do this for any non western country but they would put fear as if it is the most dangerous project to embark upon knowing how profitable and development assisted it can be to any country that has it. Shame to capitalism is equal racism and wickedness.
@@atomicblenderdid indeed. Question is why are they technologically behind when they use older "engine" when you made the analogy? Or do they not sell later generation of nuclear reactors?
They say, the success in many ways is the correct structure of command, the power of three: 1. The President of country 2. The president of the corp, a.k.a. The manager 3. The collective council of scientist The company answers only to the President and not to a bunch of investors, the scientist don’t waste time, just pile their needs on the manager, and the President always has direct attention of the both.
Not having to run at a profit and provide a high ROI for investors can be very helpful in certain situations. Public entities can often achieve more than private entities, not being limited by the requirements to return a high profit. I won't say one is better than the other, just more useful for different purposes.
@@Krill_all_health_insuranceCEOs Absolutely right. 50 years back the earnings expected from investments were reasonable. What we have now is a situation where if investments are not making 10-20% return per year then its not a good investment. To achieve that, worker pay has suffered greatly over the last 30 years and executive pay has climbed into stratosphere.
Rosatom conquers all the elements from the periodic table that exist on the planet). In addition to uranium, he also deals with rare earth elements, lithium, and hydrogen. And also the elimination of hazardous chemical waste, the creation of composites for aircraft manufacturing, the creation of data centers, quantum computers, management of the Northern Sea Route, the creation of reactors for spacecraft, wind energy, radio medicine, and so on. By and large, this is the most technologically advanced company in Russia. And another technology giant from Russia, Rostec, has a similar structure.
People in the West don't know that MOST of the reactors in Ukraine run on Russian nuclear fuel. Rosatom is still servicing them, and Ukraine is paying money to Russia. And Russia pays Ukraine about $1.5 billion a year to transport gas to Europe.
Western honest media said that Russia is technologicaly backward. I am confused by this and American rockets flying on worlds best engine RD190 produced in Russia.

7:23 - "the next closest would be the state-owned french companies like EDF & Framatome" 16:46 - "it's almost impossible for private western companies to compete with large state-backed companies like Rosatom"
much was not told about Rosatom. this company has created several dozen start-ups that already produce complex materials from carbon, special alloys. there is video analytics of business processes. there is a powerful IT sector. and many more interesting things. but if about the main thing - microcircuits and servers will not work without electricity.
What steps should the western industry take to account for the increased political cost of working with rosatom? The consolidation of the disparate parts of the russian nuclear industry into rosatom could easily be imagined as a political move, rather than an economic one. Is it? With the favorable terms offered, how lucrative could rosatom even be? How badly is it/will it be hurt by the ukraine war and sanctions. What would be the consequences for the nuclear plants around the world if rosatom could no longer fill it's side of the servicing/fueling/opperating contracts?
I won't say I can read the Russian government's mind, but consolidating the various nuclear industries and (clearly) focusing on exports for political influence is not new. Both the Americans and Russians have done this for decades. What is impossible to know, is whether all these projects are profitable for Rosatom. They are not a public company so there is essentially no transparency on their financial accounting. However, with so many (somewhat) large loans out to developing countries, there is decent risk associated with default on those loans. A private company would struggle with a default on a $25B loan. The Russian government can handle it. I doubt Rosatom would collapse, even if several of its projects went bad. Either the government would support them or they'd reorganize into another company (see Areva/Orano/EdF in France a few years ago). Cheers!
@@atomicblender this loans are profitable even with low interest and default not a problem, because most of this billions of dollars never leaves Russia, because Rosatom use its own components, its own construction workers and its own materials, some of the parts of nuclear plants can be build by local construction companys, but in terms of money its not so much, so all this loans stimulate economy and create work places fot hundreds of thousands people in Russia
You are proceeding from false premises trying to reason from the point of view of financial capitalism. Rosatom is a real production and a de facto state within a state and did not need consolidation... since this is the Ministry of Atomic Industry of the USSR. This is not a company primarily aimed at profit as a goal, it is a corporation that protects its interests and the interests of its main shareholder and client - Russia. If at the same time it is still possible to develop technologies and capture markets - that's great!) There is a "joke" that Rosatom broke away from a larger corporation - the USSR. In a way, it really is. The very premise that fundamental research should benefit immediately is harmful, in fact it killed the nuclear industry in the United States. I will reveal a little thought, the current crisis of the global economy is capable of destroying supply chains and logistics, which causes structural inflation in addition to the usual one. Rosatom has its own production base, universities, its own extraterritoriality (!) closed cities and production facilities and a de facto army (!) And he doesn't give a damn what's going on in the global economy, rather it's a reason to expand in some areas. After all, everyone needs weapons, medicines and new materials ... ps And yes, Rosatom is far from alone, there are many similar corporations with state participation, albeit on a somewhat smaller scale, which absorb smaller production facilities and holdings for more centralized management. It is wrong to estimate the scale of the company by capitalization in the financial market, especially to impose sanctions). All these estimates are like measuring the tip of an iceberg, whereas real production is its main part.
ROSATOM is not all about nuclear power. Also it's about nuclear weapons, nuclear submarines and outer space nuclear program (high orbit satelites and long reach space ships which drives are powered by nuclear reactors). Even without any international orders ROSATOM would be profitable inside Russia - as nuclear weapons, nuclear ships and submarines, nuclear plants, nuclear fuel and nuclear space drives provider.
Great job! Honest analysis of the state of the art. Thank you for being serious in your investigations. You earn a new enthusiastic subscriber. Thank you very much. What you state about France is just the tip of a terrific iceberg. 50 years ago, French were very proud of their nuke-based electrical grid which was a De Gaulle's decision in late 60s that began to be implemented in 1974. Meanwhile French Framatom and EDF didn't really invest in R&D seriously. French successive governments were obsessed by securing uranium fuel in vain, triggering bloody civil wars in Africa. French ambitions of being a global nuke energy provider were beyond reality. Regarding Brit's Inkley NPN, EDF had to beg Chinese expertise in concrete special building, raising embarrassing concerns about French engineering capabilities... Putin's Russia adopted a more consistent and multi-year policies in nuke energy. And as you said, they made it in a brilliant way. It's safe to say, Putin is the strategist Russia was waiting for. France has only a series of petty republican kings all along the 3 decades. EDF and Framatom just paid for such a typically French complacency. Congrats Russia!
it's important to mention that Rosatom is NOT among the companies that are under Western sanctions to Russia.
Maybe Russia could use it to do it the other way around.

Rosatom is 10-20 years ahead of its competitors in terms of technology. They can enrich Uranium for the 235th isotope from the waste left by other companies. extract much more from natural uranium than all the others. Rosatom has the only fast neutron reactors on the planet, where more fuel is produced than is loaded. Rosatom is building the world's first reactor where the entire fuel cycle will be closed within one nuclear power plant. Rosatom has the only floating nuclear power plants on the planet, which, like a nuclear battery, it installed for 10 years, and when it worked out, it was replaced.

Not to mention modern Russia that would be more than happy to continue providing services that you lost after the fall of the USSR.

The Russian giant also monopolizes the nuclear fusion giant magnet export. In November 2022, the French company EDF recieved such giant magnet from the Rosatom despite sanctions.The Russian-made magnet, or "poloidal field coil" weigh 200-tonne and nine-metre-wide. The coil had been tightly wrapped to withstand the two-week trip to Marseille in the south of France where 35 nations are collaborating to build the largest nuclear fusion device in the world.

To begin with, Rosatom is much more than you stated.
Rosatom is engaged in advanced scientific developments.
Rosatom is: space satellites, additive technologies, management of the Northern Sea Route, composite materials, hydrogen technologies and much more.
Rosatom launched a fast neutron reactor and is working on a closed cycle technology.
Rosatom mastered the production of floating reactors. Now, for example, Malaysia can order a power plant for rent.
Rosatom plans to launch mini-reactors for small facilities, such as remote villages in the far north or a remote island.
Rosatom not only enriches half of the world's nuclear fuel, it does it many times cheaper.
Problems with European partners arose much earlier than the start of the NWO. This is not difficult to verify. This is the usual unfair competition from America. In violation of the treaties, before the start of the war, they already tried to switch to American fuel.
What kind of competition can we talk about if Rosatom builds 2 times cheaper and 2 times faster?
Well - the Europeans are no strangers. In the end, they buy American gas regardless of the price. True, there are doubts about how long their industry will last with such prices?
Like you mentioned, Rosatom does more than I listed here. However, it's a 17 minute video and I can't fit it all in, so it focuses on the core nuclear parts that are most comparable to European and American companies.
Cheaper and faster and more reliable with the schedule. Countries that are selecting others have different reasons than cost: political, security, domestic markets to satisfy, etc. Nuclear energy is often not about the lowest price, it can be used as a lever for or against governments. Western companies generally aren't competitive on price. But Russia also sells to countries that can't afford it through government loans. If American companies had access to government financing in the same way, the landscape would be very different in developing countries. But they don't, so it is the way it is, unfair or not. Cheers!

The thought is correct. Accents are placed incorrectly.
If you look at the bigger picture, it is easy to see that America claims to be a fighter for the freedom of the market. America is a stronghold of non-violation of private property. The West is the realm of justice and the rule of law, and so on.
What are we actually seeing?
When necessary, we cancel the secrecy of deposits, freeze accounts, and persecute citizens of other countries for our own reasons.
We have no problem withdrawing from trade agreements. We make our own rules for everyone.
The American plan to fight inflation - what is this if not a blatant violation of WTO rules?
Using your rhetoric about national interests, the United States acts everywhere: from the arms market, the energy market, the electronics market, the food market, etc.
Have you forgotten that the zone of American interests extends to the entire Earth?
If you forgot - look at the location of military bases. All of them are located along trade routes.
Why is China's One Belt One Road program declared hostile? Because these are not controlled routes.
about government funding. The US government, only for the development of technology for producing nuclear fuel, has allocated 15 billion dollars. As far as I know - money in the sand.
Who is printing $5 trillion a year? Then Putin is to blame for inflation?
Open your eyes - all this fuss is not for the sake of security, not for the sake of democracy and progress.
Today, international financial capital (globalists) are fighting for the right to command the World and spit on everyone, including Europeans and Americans.
This is not a conspiracy theory at all. It's just that today the Democrats represent the interests of bankers and work off the money invested in them. Their main task is to keep the dominance of the dollar, and all sorts of technologies are side problems.

The real percentage, if you dig deeper, is many times higher and in fact most of the uranium in the US is Russian uranium. Why? To do this, you can simply look at the owners of uranium deposits and their subsidiaries.
The uranium in Kazakhstan is effectively owned and mined by Russia, and most recently, the government of Kazakhstan approved the transfer of ownership interests in the three largest uranium deposits located in the country, which were managed by Uranium One Inc., by a resolution. And now the most interesting thing about Uranium One Inc. according to papers, this is a company registered in Canada, but it is only a corporate structure of Rosatom and is wholly owned by it. The Russian corporation, through its "Canadian representative" office, owned shares in Kazakh uranium mines, which, from the point of view of international law, made it easy to fight off all accusations of trying to monopolize the market. In the realities of 2023, such trifles are no longer particularly relevant, and, in fact, Russia has finally established itself in the status of the world's main producer of fuel uranium.
Therefore, the real percentage of uranium that the United States buys from Russia is most likely somewhere around 40-45% of the total.
The same picture with the monopolization of uranium mining by Rosatom is now observed in Uzbekistan (the representative of the CIS, in fact, is completely sitting on the budget of the RF), Namibia, Niger and a number of other African countries (Wagner group accidentally squeezed the French out of Africa COPIUM).
Yes, Russia holds significant influence of Kazakh and Uzbek uranium deposits. There's no way around Russia in the nuclear business.

You naive summer child didnt really think that american and middle eastern LNG and Norway did replace Russia, did you lol?
Sad reflection on western media and intelligence of its population.
@@ni9274 Do you seriously believe that the gas and oil that is now supplied to Europe is not Russian gas and oil? =)) Yes, of course, according to the contracts, it goes like Indian, Hungarian, Norwegian, and sometimes even British and US with an extra charge of two or three times. In fact, this gas or oil is in most cases produced in Russia, delivered from Russia through intermediary companies that mix it 49/50 with any other and sell it as their "clean" and "democratic" gas or oil product.
I understand that "insider" is not the best example in the argument, but even they write about it "The EU is buying up Russian liquefied natural gas at the highest level in 3 years, think tank says". "Russia is still a major source of LNG, particularly as the continent still runs the risk of an energy crisis in the winter of 2023, according to International Energy Agency chief Fatih Birol. " etc
If you really want to drop into the topic of how Europe itself bypasses its own sanctions, then this is not a problem the Internet is full of information on this matter. Any talk that the EU has abandoned Russian gas and oil has nothing to do with reality. All that the EU can do is to buy the same Russian gas at a price 3 or 4 times more expensive, but already from outbidders who bought it from Russia, having received the same Russian gas as a result. What is most "ridiculous" is that such schemes turned out to be even more profitable for Russia in terms of price and volume than when the EU countries bought this gas and oil directly from Russia. For the second year in a row, sales of oil and gas from Russia are breaking records in terms of volume and profit.
Europeans has sign contracts with American westinghouse, but the westinghouse itself can't supply even US. In fact westinghouse will just buy the same Rosatom fuel and resell it to Europeans making a high margin on them. Good job America!

Rosatom is not a new corporation in 2007, only legally according to the documents. In reality, it was based on the property of the mysterious and secret Ministry of Medium Machine Building of the USSR and Russia, which also owned completely secret cities. The main achievement and secret of Rosatom is a cheap and reliable technology of gas centrifuges for uranium-235 enrichment, which allows it to dominate this market, as well as a focus on processing all types of nuclear waste.
It's because in USSR everything related to Nuclear technology was under control of mentioned ministry. However, after the dissolution of USSR, many factories and companies have become independant. Rosatom was created as a huge corporation that controls civilian nuclear technology in Russia and it's main goal is to earn money, unlike the Ministry of Medium Machine Building which main goal was creating and supervising military nuclear technologies. Nowadays this task is fully carried out by the Ministry of Defense, which then gives out contracts to various Russian goverment corporations, not necessary Rosatom. For example, today famous ICBM Sarmat is being produced on the Roscosmos Krasmash factory, which was part of the Minitry of General Machine Building during USSR. Some parts for it are made in Rosatom factories, some parts are made in Rostech factories, etc...
So, overall, while Rosatom is a recreation of Ministry of Medium Machine Building from USSR in some wat, it's not quite alike and has different goals, hierarchy, structure and etc...

It is unlikely that someone will be able to catch up with Rosatom, taking into account the development of 4th generation reactors (thermonuclear).

5:51 The technological growth is much higher than any other companies, the new top 1200 is designed from scratch and all simulations of different situations have been carried out, Rosatom has also improved the chemical composition of nuclear fuel, and a new version of the turbine will be built. Also, a fast neutron reactor has already been developed and is being tested, the only working copy in the world that will close the nuclear fuel tank in the future.

@Philip Well, all was coming from the heart of USSR and majority of the first scientists. Ukraine was simply the place used for the projects so please do not draw unfactual links to something that is nothing to do with what Ukraine claims it is.
A lot of this does happen most of the time. Russia supplies America with rocket engines and the nuclear fusion program with giant magnets. Taiwan produces microchips but the ever decreasing size is a product of Dutch machinery and the designs are often American. Network infrastructure from China and telephones from Scandinavia and so on. I think you are rather out of date with your assessment of Western education.
@Philip Ukraine did not exist at the time, and neither did Russia. USSR is an entirely different beast.
After transition to capitalism, both countries pretty much went to shit in terms of education. It's still relatively good, especially mathematics and science, but it's a shadow of the USSR that in decline for 30 years.

Wow this was fascinating. Awesome video. I never knew about any of this (nuclear is always shaded in a bit of secrecy) but given Russia's history of scientific, nuclear and industrial output it makes sense. Why doesn't our government do something similar? Like an Amtrak or NASA equivalent but for nuclear services. Merge a few private sector companies that do the things Rosatom does, revise laws that impede trade, implementation and sales and form a new government backed corporation. That's what they did for Amtrak and it saved passenger train service which were one by one going out of business in the 70s because of the oil crisis and jet airplanes. It could be a great political tool as well for the United States. Especially in western allied countries.
Clearly the infrastructure and partnership strategy China and Russia use in the developing "global south" are highly influential there and a win-win for both parties. If our leaders were smart they'd do something similar instead of bickering about nonsense all the time. Create a new hybrid private-government backed company to compete -- because no offense to our French friends but they just don't have the resources or means of scale to compete with Rosatom. At this level only the US or China could compete. Given that Westinghouse seems to be a big player in this field, the federal government should start with them. Had no idea Westinghouse was even still around let alone relevant anymore. They used to make everything from air brakes to home appliances and consumer electronics and have sort of fallen off the map. Who know nuclear plants were their bread and butter. You learn something new everyday. Awesome video! Subscribed!
Thanks for the feedback (and subscribe!) I think there could be consideration for a public-private partnership with large US nuclear companies, but anything more than that and it's a hard sell. Actions that could be seen as a state takeover of a company would be cried at as either a bailout or nationalization of the industry, neither of which is probably politically appealing. The US government has generally supported export of US reactors and is willing to help out in negotiations (check out the long discussions with India on nuclear liability). Cheers!
Even then, no country with a right mind would voluntarily rely on the west for any critical infrastructure. Russia has proven to be a reliable partner for agreements even in crisis.
@@atomicblender man, the American government in 2014 carried out an armed coup d'état in Ukraine, spending, according to Victoria Nuland, 5 billion dollars of budget money on it, installed a puppet occupation administration in Kiev, pumped it up with weapons and threw it to the East - but you say that it was Russia that OCCUPIED Ukraine , and it was Russia that STARTED the war? Are you a student of Goebbels? You know, Putin didn't call the US the "Empire of Lies" for nothing - you just proved it.
@@alexgainsborough4921 greetings from Russia! :) C'mon this video is not about politics, but about technologies and a little about the economy. You are completely right about the causes of this tragedy (and it's really cool that you're so knowledgeable!), but even what you have listed is only the tip of the iceberg (there are much more reasons and I can't write about half of them here because of the UA-cam policy). No one can know everything, and now it is much more important to maintain ties in technology, science, culture and so on (because we live on the same planet) than to be distracted by what potentially separates us. So I have no complaints against the author, because everything else in the video was correct and truthful. Moreover, if the author had said otherwise, he would have been accused of working for Putin :) So it's better for people to learn about the real achievements of my country - this can be the first step in order to overcome the imposed stereotypes.
@@Krigerification thanks for the comment. But you are wrong: everyone knows the reasons for what happened: the United States wants to be present in this region - officially, in the form of a naval base in the Crimea, or hiding behind puppets - but to be present and control.
In fact, this is helping poor countries and investing in solving the problem of climate change, not just blah-blah about it. And how does the US actually help poor countries? lol... It even sounds ridiculous.
Call a spade a spade! Rosatom is a leader in this sector!

Rosatom is the greatest fighter against climate change.
This is a nice video but I strongly disagree that the design or safety features of the nuclear reactors build in Russia are in any way inferior to the western designs, I'm not an expert but I conclude this from what I have read about this topic in specialized sites, including the IAEA, etc. I would like to know what sources apart from western bias you have to say that their design is inferior to what the west produces?
modern Russian ones are safer. There is a large number of passive protection systems. and the Western ones, what can I say, remember Fukushima.

A minor point about the Hinkley C you mentioned, while the strike price was huge back at the start of the project, it's now significantly cheaper than gas.
Various studies have shown, however, that if the British and French governments had just loaned the money directly rather than through backing commercial loans, the project costs could have been nearly halved.
Fair point, the somewhat fixed strike price I remember being outrageously high. Gas in the UK has surged since then so it's much more reasonable now. But even then, it's higher than a lot of other places.
I hadn't seen the direct loan vs loan guarantee difference you mentioned, I'll have to look into that, it sounds interesting. Cheers!
@@atomicblender It's not just whole sale gas prices, the whole energy market has become rather more expensive for a variety of factors, with underinvestment in generating capacity and over reliance on EU grid connectors being significant.
Wholesale energy prices have come down from their peak, but with average £/MWh being £>120 looking like the new stable, even the hideously mismanaged and overpriced Hinkley looks like a bargain.
I suppose my point was, it was mismanaged, misfinanced, misdesigned, misrepresented, publicly maligned and weathered a pandemic, yet it *still* manages to be a better financial option than CCGT for large non-intermittent generation.
@@LudvigIndestrucable Well summarised!
@@atomicblender
I don't understand, do you live on another planet?
By introducing all these energy packages, Europe interfered in commercial relations.
Gazprom has received many lawsuits in which long-term contracts were backdated.
How to plan investments in such a situation? How to take loans?
The next step - at the suit of Poland, Gazprom paid 3 billion and was obliged to trade not under long-term contracts, but through the stock exchange.
The calculation was simple - the pipes are lying, it is necessary to blow through, and we will form the prices.
Achieved! Well done!
Now the price of gas is not tied to the price of oil. Now you can speculate with gas!
But Gazprom did not come to the stock exchange. Strange, right? Why does Gazprom not want to bring down the price and sell cheaper? Just amazing.
What to do? Correctly impose sanctions!!
Well, Well .. Smile and wave ....

Thank you for being very informative without stating any unnecessary political opinions. This is what I look for in UA-cam! This is why true educational content is like
Thanks for the video 👍🏻 All numbers in place and statistics is pretty accurate. I'am fully agree with facts and your logic. It's worth to mention, that ROSATOM even use different CPU Elbrus that was invanted in Russia and of course operation system is different. I mean, they are really using cutting the age technologies.
Hi and thank you for a nuclear blog on yt! I am supplying nuclear related valves and pumps for Rosatom projects for many years. Your overview seems correct, but I want to add some details:
- Rosatom can make most of the critical NPP equipment by their own, but some important elements are still out of their range: turbines, APCS are the most painful parts now, due to the sanctions.
- New NPPs are coming up: you mentioned Egypt, but also there going to be new units for Kursk, Smolensk and Leningrad inside, another NPPs in Turkey and India, Hungary is still on board.
- Rosatom operates the northern seaway and building 3 new icebreakers and 4 new floating NPPs right now. Floating NPPs is unique and planned to be offered for foreign countries.
- Small modular NPPs, which are popular worldwide are also developing. They are going to build prototypeNPP of that type in Yakutistan.
Very good video, to say the least! I would like to add that all these traits come from the fact that RosAtom is, what i like to call it, "a soviet union of corporations", and by that i mean that there are hundreds of different corporations, factories and construction bureaus that work under the same command and for the same goal, not confronting but complementing eachother in production of numerous parts of nuclear powerplants and other related things. This means that whichever company or bureau ivents anything important, RosAtom and most of it's companies it consists of get to use the fruits of this invention. Plus no matter who gets governmental grants and for what reason - it will always benefit the mother company RosAtom the same (obviously to some degree, but still). Also it's just easier to coordinate literally half of best production companies and institutes if they all are parts of one big corporation.
There are also two more of these major "Corporational USSRs" - RosKosmos and RosTech, and they share the composition structure and command traits with RosAtom, but do different things (obviously they collaborate to maximum possible degree, but this is where fighting for money start).
RosKosmos manages all that is related to space program, and RosTech, the least developed of these triad, manages various technological productions and construction bueraus, mostly related to electronics. It's their job to make Russia a competitor in the computer chips race and to replace imported components with homemade onesin basically everything, and given how much less of soviet tech base they got compared to the RosAtom and RosKosmos they had to start almost from zero. And it looks like some progress was acheved by their hands. We'll see how effective they will prove themselves in near future...
Very impressive for what some western media refer to as Orcs! 🇷🇺💪

Can you show me any western media refer Russia as orcs ?
Because Western modern counties care about the nuclear waste. Shitty poor counties, doesn’t care about that 😂

I've already bought two Rosatom's atomic plants and very pleased with it's quality! Will recommend those guys to all my friends 👍
Jokes aside, Rosatom also build mini nuclear power plants, which are way cheaper tham normal ones and are affordable by price not only to giant corporation. So they are very popular in poor countries
No western country would do this for any non western country but they would put fear as if it is the most dangerous project to embark upon knowing how profitable and development assisted it can be to any country that has it. Shame to capitalism is equal racism and wickedness.
By the way, what an excellent channel. Thank you for the excellent, informative content.
Glad you enjoy it!
@@atomicblenderdid indeed. Question is why are they technologically behind when they use older "engine" when you made the analogy? Or do they not sell later generation of nuclear reactors?
They say, the success in many ways is the correct structure of command, the power of three:
1. The President of country
2. The president of the corp, a.k.a. The manager
3. The collective council of scientist
The company answers only to the President and not to a bunch of investors, the scientist don’t waste time, just pile their needs on the manager, and the President always has direct attention of the both.
Not having to run at a profit and provide a high ROI for investors can be very helpful in certain situations.
Public entities can often achieve more than private entities, not being limited by the requirements to return a high profit. I won't say one is better than the other, just more useful for different purposes.
@@Krill_all_health_insuranceCEOs Absolutely right. 50 years back the earnings expected from investments were reasonable. What we have now is a situation where if investments are not making 10-20% return per year then its not a good investment. To achieve that, worker pay has suffered greatly over the last 30 years and executive pay has climbed into stratosphere.
And Biden is like: What is atom, can I touch it? LOL
@@alexk8583 "is it above 14 years old? can I sniff it?"

Rosatom conquers all the elements from the periodic table that exist on the planet). In addition to uranium, he also deals with rare earth elements, lithium, and hydrogen. And also the elimination of hazardous chemical waste, the creation of composites for aircraft manufacturing, the creation of data centers, quantum computers, management of the Northern Sea Route, the creation of reactors for spacecraft, wind energy, radio medicine, and so on. By and large, this is the most technologically advanced company in Russia. And another technology giant from Russia, Rostec, has a similar structure.
Great overview of a complex subject, thank you sir
People in the West don't know that MOST of the reactors in Ukraine run on Russian nuclear fuel. Rosatom is still servicing them, and Ukraine is paying money to Russia. And Russia pays Ukraine about $1.5 billion a year to transport gas to Europe.
Россия уже не платит за транспортировку газа, ведь через Украину давно нет транзита

much was not told about Rosatom. this company has created several dozen start-ups that already produce complex materials from carbon, special alloys. there is video analytics of business processes. there is a powerful IT sector. and many more interesting things. but if about the main thing - microcircuits and servers will not work without electricity.

It's called RosAtom - the stress is on A.
Good overview. Special appreciate for using fresh shoots from the first unit cap compleating. I have been on the top 1 week prior to the date.
What steps should the western industry take to account for the increased political cost of working with rosatom?
The consolidation of the disparate parts of the russian nuclear industry into rosatom could easily be imagined as a political move, rather than an economic one. Is it?
With the favorable terms offered, how lucrative could rosatom even be? How badly is it/will it be hurt by the ukraine war and sanctions. What would be the consequences for the nuclear plants around the world if rosatom could no longer fill it's side of the servicing/fueling/opperating contracts?
I won't say I can read the Russian government's mind, but consolidating the various nuclear industries and (clearly) focusing on exports for political influence is not new. Both the Americans and Russians have done this for decades. What is impossible to know, is whether all these projects are profitable for Rosatom. They are not a public company so there is essentially no transparency on their financial accounting. However, with so many (somewhat) large loans out to developing countries, there is decent risk associated with default on those loans. A private company would struggle with a default on a $25B loan. The Russian government can handle it. I doubt Rosatom would collapse, even if several of its projects went bad. Either the government would support them or they'd reorganize into another company (see Areva/Orano/EdF in France a few years ago). Cheers!
@@atomicblender I heard Rosatom hate contract with Finland and was super happy then west sanctioned this project, because it was real pain in ass.
@@trololoev Yeah, they intended to build atomic plant almost for free for showing EU countries what they can offer
@@atomicblender this loans are profitable even with low interest and default not a problem, because most of this billions of dollars never leaves Russia, because Rosatom use its own components, its own construction workers and its own materials, some of the parts of nuclear plants can be build by local construction companys, but in terms of money its not so much, so all this loans stimulate economy and create work places fot hundreds of thousands people in Russia
You are proceeding from false premises trying to reason from the point of view of financial capitalism. Rosatom is a real production and a de facto state within a state and did not need consolidation... since this is the Ministry of Atomic Industry of the USSR. This is not a company primarily aimed at profit as a goal, it is a corporation that protects its interests and the interests of its main shareholder and client - Russia. If at the same time it is still possible to develop technologies and capture markets - that's great!) There is a "joke" that Rosatom broke away from a larger corporation - the USSR. In a way, it really is.
The very premise that fundamental research should benefit immediately is harmful, in fact it killed the nuclear industry in the United States.
I will reveal a little thought, the current crisis of the global economy is capable of destroying supply chains and logistics, which causes structural inflation in addition to the usual one. Rosatom has its own production base, universities, its own extraterritoriality (!) closed cities and production facilities and a de facto army (!)
And he doesn't give a damn what's going on in the global economy, rather it's a reason to expand in some areas. After all, everyone needs weapons, medicines and new materials ...
ps
And yes, Rosatom is far from alone, there are many similar corporations with state participation, albeit on a somewhat smaller scale, which absorb smaller production facilities and holdings for more centralized management. It is wrong to estimate the scale of the company by capitalization in the financial market, especially to impose sanctions). All these estimates are like measuring the tip of an iceberg, whereas real production is its main part.
ROSATOM is not all about nuclear power. Also it's about nuclear weapons, nuclear submarines and outer space nuclear program (high orbit satelites and long reach space ships which drives are powered by nuclear reactors). Even without any international orders ROSATOM would be profitable inside Russia - as nuclear weapons, nuclear ships and submarines, nuclear plants, nuclear fuel and nuclear space drives provider.

Great job! Honest analysis of the state of the art. Thank you for being serious in your investigations. You earn a new enthusiastic subscriber. Thank you very much.
What you state about France is just the tip of a terrific iceberg. 50 years ago, French were very proud of their nuke-based electrical grid which was a De Gaulle's decision in late 60s that began to be implemented in 1974. Meanwhile French Framatom and EDF didn't really invest in R&D seriously. French successive governments were obsessed by securing uranium fuel in vain, triggering bloody civil wars in Africa. French ambitions of being a global nuke energy provider were beyond reality. Regarding Brit's Inkley NPN, EDF had to beg Chinese expertise in concrete special building, raising embarrassing concerns about French engineering capabilities...
Putin's Russia adopted a more consistent and multi-year policies in nuke energy. And as you said, they made it in a brilliant way. It's safe to say, Putin is the strategist Russia was waiting for. France has only a series of petty republican kings all along the 3 decades. EDF and Framatom just paid for such a typically French complacency. Congrats Russia!
It seems the west is finished for cheep energy, with cheep Russian gas gone, and cheep nuclear also. Where to go from here?
Зато можете каждый день придумывать себе новую идентичность.
No need to go anywhere. Just identify energy as cheap and it will become cheap. Just like genders.
Just need to rename coal as green energy. It's cheap as it is
Energy = work = food.
Thus with a lack of energy =>starvation
By the way, from 2025 Rosatom will begin mass production of its own electric vehicles
I’m sure it’s gonna be a big hit.
