Cape Nagloynyn floating nuclear power plant is a 424 MW nuclear power station in , Russia. It is operated by Atomflot; Rosatom [100%]. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 955k homes (estimated). It ranks #190 of 678 Russia power plants by installed capacity. As a non-combustion source, it has no direct CO₂ emissions from generation. In context, nuclear supplies about 18.3% of Russia's electricity; the national grid averages 450 gCO₂/kWh (35.7% low-carbon) (2025).

At 424 MW, Cape Nagloynyn floating nuclear power plant is below the median nuclear plant in Russia (2,400 MW). Technically it is described as pressurized water reactor. Its current lifecycle status is “Construction” — so it is not yet, or no longer, generating at full output. Nuclear plants split uranium to raise steam with no direct CO₂; they run as steady baseload with very high capacity factors and the longest operating lifetimes of any thermal plant.

This nuclear plant uses heat from nuclear fission to raise steam for a turbine-generator. It sits in a subarctic (boreal) climate (Köppen Dfc) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 69.1°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
