The IAEA lists both units of the site as fast breeder reactors, and the design is known as the CFR-600. Construction of Unit 1 began on 29 December 2017 and Unit 2 on 27 December 2020, three years later. In 2019 an agreement was signed for TVEL, a Rosatom subsidiary, to supply fuel for the reactors.
