俄罗斯国家原子能集团（Rosatom）总裁阿列克谢·利哈乔夫周二表示，随着埃里温考量国际合作伙伴的报价，Rosatom已提议在亚美尼亚新建一座1000兆瓦的核电机组。
Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom has proposed building a new 1,000-megawatt nuclear power unit in Armenia as Yerevan considers offers from international partners, its head said Tuesday.
利哈乔夫在埃里温与亚美尼亚总理尼科尔·帕希尼扬及副总理姆赫尔·格里戈良会谈后发表上述言论。
Rosatom Director General Alexey Likhachev made the remarks following talks with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Deputy Prime Minister Mher Grigoryan in Yerevan.
利哈乔夫表示，此次会谈系此前帕希尼扬分别与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京和总理米哈伊尔·米舒斯汀会晤达成共识后的后续行动。
Likhachev said the talks followed agreements reached during Pashinyan's earlier discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.
据俄罗斯媒体报道，他称会谈“在专业层面深入、在范围上广泛”，并补充说核能在亚美尼亚“未来几十年仍大有可为”。
He said the talks were “deep in terms of expertise and broad in scope,” adding that nuclear energy has a future in Armenia “for decades to come,” according to Russian media.
据俄罗斯塔斯社报道，利哈乔夫表示：“我们当前的任务是在未来几个月内制定出最具竞争力的提案，以便亚美尼亚能够选定新机组建设的合作伙伴和供应商。”
“The task now before us is to formulate the most competitive proposal in the coming months so that Armenia can select a partner and vendor for the construction of a new unit,” Likhachev said, according to Russian state news agency Tass.
他补充道：“我们已向亚美尼亚政府提交了一项具体提案，即基于我们顶级的VVER-1000设计建设一座1000兆瓦机组。”
“We have submitted a concrete proposal to the Armenian government for a 1,000-megawatt unit based on our best-in-class VVER-1000 design,” he added.
利哈乔夫表示，亚美尼亚也在考虑将亚美尼亚核电站（ANPP）的运行寿命延长至2046年。他补充说，如果埃里温决定推进，Rosatom已准备好实施必要的工作。
Likhachev said Armenia is also considering extending the Armenian Nuclear Power Plant’s service life until 2046. Rosatom is prepared to carry out the necessary work if Yerevan proceeds, he added.
他说：“然而，除了技术可行性，我们还必须考虑经济可行性。”并补充说，延长电厂运营将需要巨额投资。
“However, beyond technical feasibility, we must also consider economic viability,” he said, adding that extending the plant's operations would require substantial investment.
亚美尼亚核电站于1976年投入运营，位于亚美尼亚首都以西约30公里（18.6英里）处，距离土耳其与亚美尼亚的东部边境约16公里（10英里）。
The ANPP was commissioned in 1976 and is located about 30 kilometers (18.6 miles) west of the Armenian capital and around 16 kilometers (10 miles) from Türkiye's eastern border with Armenia.
该电厂目前有一个运行中的机组。另一台机组因1988年发生的里氏6.8级地震而关闭，那次地震造成至少2.5万人死亡，数十万人无家可归。
The plant currently has a single operational power unit. Another was shut down following a 6.8-magnitude earthquake in 1988 that killed at least 25,000 people and left hundreds of thousands homeless.
俄罗斯国家原子能集团公司在周二会谈后发表声明称，双方还讨论了将亚美尼亚核电站运营许可证延长至2036年，以及亚美尼亚新核电产能的前景。
Rosatom said in a statement following Tuesday's talks that the two sides also discussed extending the ANPP's operating license until 2036, as well as prospects for new nuclear power generation capacity in Armenia.
帕希尼扬办公室表示，埃里温正在考虑国际合作伙伴关于建设新核电机组的提案，并预计将在“近期”做出决定。声明称：“尼科尔·帕希尼扬强调，最终决定将完全基于经济考量，综合考虑价格、质量、安全、时间表和担保等因素。”
Pashinyan's office said Yerevan is considering proposals from international partners for the construction of a new nuclear power unit and expects to make a decision “in the near future.”“Nikol Pashinyan emphasized that the final decision would be based exclusively on economic considerations, taking into account price, quality, safety, timelines, and guarantees,” the statement said.
该办公室补充称，利哈乔夫提出了新核电站以及中小型机组的建设提案，以及可能的实施机制。
His office added that Likhachev presented proposals for a new nuclear power plant as well as small- and medium-capacity power units and possible mechanisms for their implementation.
