The states Nuclear Program is a program to build and utilize nuclear science and technology both in the non-energy sector and in the energy sector for peaceful purposes. Utilization of non-energy in Indonesia has developed quite advanced. The use of nuclear power in every countries covers various fields such as health, research and industry. Indonesia's readiness in implementing nuclear energy is carried out by ratifying international conventions, issuing laws, and issuing regulations from the Nuclear Energy Supervisory Agency, readiness in the field of infrastructure used to strengthen technology, and in Indonesia is committed to reducing 26% of greenhouse gas emissions in the year 2020. A nuclear power plant or nuclear power plant is a thermal power plant that uses one or more nuclear reactors as a heat source. The working principle of a nuclear power plant is almost the same as a steam power plant, using high pressure steam to turn a turbine. The rotation of the turbine is converted into electrical energy. The difference is the heat source used to generate heat. A nuclear power plant uses uranium as its heat source. The fission reaction (fission) of the uranium nucleus produces enormous heat energy. The power of a nuclear power plant ranges from 40 MWe to 2000 MWe, and a nuclear power plant built in 2005 has a power distribution from 600 MWe to 1200 MWe. As of 2015 there are 437 nuclear power plants operating in the world, which in total generate about 1/6 of the world's electrical energy. To date, around 66 nuclear power plants are being built in various countries, including China with 28 units, Russia with 11 units, India with 7 units, the United Arab Emirates with 4 units, South Korea with 4 units, Pakistan and Taiwan with 2 units each. Nuclear power plants are categorized based on the type of reactor used. However, in some plants that have several separate reactor units, it is possible to use reactor types that are fueled such as Uranium and Plutonium.

Optimizing existing nuclear power plants adding developing power technology can help find effective ways of improving variable power loads in an electric power system. One of the most promising options is combining a nuclear power plant with a newly developed autonomous hydrogen complex reported in our research. The ability of storing unused energy and releasing it when needed will raise contribution of nuclear power plants in compensating improving variable power loads, shorten emissions as well as contribution of conventional thermal power plants into electric power generation. Also, as we demonstrated in our previous research results, a low-power steam turbine plant used in the said autonomous hydrogen complex can support an auxiliary power system of a nuclear power plant reusing residual reactor heat in case of an outage.

The determining value of the Kola NPP in the structure of the Kola electric power system is shown. The mutually complementary operation of the 1,760 MW KAES with seventeen hydroelectric power stations with a capacity of about 1,600 MW and two 240 MW thermal power plants makes the region's power supply system unique, producing the cheapest electricity in the North-West of Russia. The issues related to the further extension of the operating life of the existing nuclear power plant and the construction of theKola NPP-2 in the future are considered.

Abstract This work is devoted to the problem of utilization of waste heat from condensers of thermal power plants and nuclear power plants. The waste heat of the condensers of TPPs and NPPs, together with the circulating water, enters the environment, causing its thermal pollution. The use of this heat in an energy-biological complex, for example, in fisheries, increases their efficiency and solves an environmental problem. Compared to ordinary ponds, this energy complex has an almost year-round increase in biomass and accelerated maturation of producers. The article presents a developed methodology that makes it possible to assess the effectiveness of such a fishery. Calculations using this method were carried out for a fish farm raising sturgeons on the basis of the waste heat of a nuclear power plant with a VVER-1200 reactor and a K-1200-6.8/50 turbine
