An update on #Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine: @ENERGY analysis shows the loss of power does not pose a near-term risk of radiological release. 1/

@IAEAorg

We support @IAEAorg assessment that while there is no critical impact on safety, loss of power to the facility violates a key safety pillar.

While there is no near-term risk to public health, these latest developments are another example of Russia’s extraordinarily reckless and dangerous actions. 3/

@ENERGY

.@ENERGY is continuing to monitor the situation and coordinate with our federal and international partners. 4/4

UPDATE: Russian forces are in control of the Zaphorizhizia nuclear plant, and we call on Russia to allow the Ukrainian operators to continue to operate safely – including allowing shift changes at both Zaphorizhizia and Chornobyl. 1/

The Ukrainian operators were extremely responsible in how they responded to yesterday’s appalling attack by safely taking 2 of the reactors offline. They currently have 1 reactor operating at partial capacity to keep the power grid stable. 2/

It’s important to understand that the Zaphorizhizia nuclear plant is designed to withstand significant shelling or bombardment. We have seen no elevated radiation readings overnight. Safety systems are intact, and reactors continue to receive cooling. 3/

@USAmbMex

Just wrapped an incredible trip to Mexico where @USAmbMex and I met with senior Mexican leadership, including President @LopezObrador, and industry, legislators, and civil society. Thank you for frank and respectful conversations. 1/ (Thread) 🇺🇸🇲🇽 energy.gov/articles/state…

@RocioNahle

Thank you to the Mexican gov’t, including @RocioNahle and @Claudiashein, for the warm welcome & open dialogue about a joint energy future. The U.S. greatly values our relationship with MX & sees tremendous promise for renewable energy to propel North American competitiveness. 2/

In each meeting, we expressly conveyed the Biden-Harris Administration’s real concerns with the potential negative impact of Mexico’s proposed energy reforms on U.S. private investment in Mexico. energy.gov/articles/state…

@Sen_JoeManchin

I’ve spent the last two days touring West Virginia with my friend, @Sen_JoeManchin, and I’ve been bowled over by the potential this state is teeming with. There’s no question, West Virginians understand the epic challenge ahead. But they can see the opportunity, too. 1/

I can see the Mountain State's resolve to seize this opportunity, and their eagerness to lead the country’s clean energy industries.

That's why I’m very pleased to announce awards that will foster #WV's contributions to the clean energy economy. energy.gov/articles/doe-a… 2/

First, we are awarding $1 million to the US Research Alliance’s IMPACT Accelerator here in Morgantown through our EPIC program—which stands for Energy Program for Innovation Clusters. energy.gov/articles/doe-a… 3/
