Last week a team of photographers from the agency of business photo, "The Gate", worked at Chornobyl NPP. The profile of agency activity is to show the very essence of companies, their missions and spirit via professional photo stories.

From May 22 till 25, the team worked with the power plant collective. From the very beginning two objectives were set for this project, namely:

1. To change the image of Chornobyl NPP from the enterprise that caused the accident to the image of a progressive, technology intensive company which has been carried out the activities and gaining the experience in RAW management that forms the basis for efficient actions related to mitigating the nuclear accident consequences. 

2. To convert the negative attitude of the public towards Chornobyl NPP into positive one and to replace the key associations “accident” with a new set of “technologies, safety, benefit”.

Within the project the photographers together with the central characters of their plots visited the LRTP and Shelter internal premises, spent a day on ISF-2 construction site, worked together with the Electrical Shop staff at the outdoor switchgear plot, took pictures of equipment dismantling in the Turbine Hall and even climbed the very top of NSC arch.

All this has become possible through the support of management of ChNPP shops, namely: Electrical Shop, Shelter (NSC) Operation Shop, Main Building and External Structure Operation Shop, RAW Management Shop, Radiation Safety Shop, Spent Fuel Management Shop and Safety Improvement PMU.  

The outcome of this project will be available on the official Facebook page of the agency.
