As reported, on November 4, one of the defendants in the case involving the misappropriation of 100 million hryvnias during the construction of a spent nuclear fuel storage facility was extradited from Germany.

In December 2020, Atomproektengineering, a separate division within Energoatom's structure, signed a contract bypassing open tenders with a pre-selected private company to complete the construction of the centralized spent nuclear fuel storage facility. Additional agreements later increased the contract's value threefold from 421 million hryvnias to 1.497 billion hryvnias. The investigation established the involvement of Energoatom officials and managers of the private company in this crime.
