Abstract
This article provides an analysis of issues in relation to the environmental safety of nuclear power plants, based on the international and Russian experience. The author demonstrates that Russian nuclear plants have a high level of environmental safety. Brief characteristics of all safety barriers have been given. And attention has been paid to the stress tests of the operating nuclear powers plants. Statistic data over recent decades confirm the high level of safety. Special attention is given to nuclear power plants having new-generation 3+ VVER reactors with the capacity of 1,200 MW.
