Abstract

Abstract

This article reveals the main goals of international experience in nuclear power plant (NPP) construction, analyses of benefits and risks that NPP operations may have on the economy and the development of a country’s scientific potential and examines annual report data. The article’s methodological approach examines the full range of opportunities and prospects not only in energy production but also in the development of new technologies, medicine, environmental protection, and promotion of scientific and technological progress. The originality and value of the article analyze the economic, environmental, and social aspects of NPP construction, focusing on safety, greenhouse gas emissions, includes NPV analysis to assess the investment attractiveness, as well as institutional risks, potential advantages and comparative analysis of the RK electricity development scenarios. The article finds out that nuclear energy contributes to increased national energy security, creation of hightech companies which are involved into the energy research, creation and providing people with working places, as well as the development of start-ups.
