Rosatom begins deployment of new-generation centrifuges at Seversk

The Siberian Chemical Combine in Seversk became the third Russian enrichment plant that began deployment of centrifuges of the 9+ generation. The program is expected to be completed in 2027.

The first enrichment plant to undergo modernization was the Electrochemical Plant in Zelenogorsk (the installation of new centrifuges began in 2019 and was completed in 2025). The installation of generation 9+ centrifuges at the Urals Electrochemical Combine in Novouralsk began in 2018. According to the TVEL report, the generation 9+ centrifuges will be installed at the Angarsk Electrolysis Chemical Combine as well.

Russia is also working on what was described as 10th-generation centrifuges.
