According to the ministry, the funds were placed in nuclear giant Atomenergoprom, a subsidiary of the Rosatom state corporation, in the amount of 57.5 million preferential shares valued at 1,000 rubles ($17.50) per share.

The facility is set to include a Russian-designed 1,200 megawatt pressurized water reactor.

According to the companies' schedule, Hanhikivi 1 will begin producing electricity in 2024.
