The cooling pond forms a single interconnected system with the Zaporozhye NPP, and the stocking program allows maintaining the standard parameters of the hydrobiological regime of the pond.

As noted by the General Director of the Zaporizhzhya NPP, Petr Kotin, stocking the cooling pond for the plant is critically important, since a new type of Amazonian shell has appeared - "melania", which interferes with the cooling of the turbine condensers, which in turn leads to a decrease in the power of the power units NPP.

Zaporozhye NPP grows fish fry on its own, creating a full-fledged closed cycle. This work has been carried out for many years, so the process of breeding and stocking the reservoir at the station is adjusted to the smallest detail. The most difficult thing is to keep the baby fish. The fry are first fed in several pools. After they grow to the desired size, they are caught and transplanted into a pond.

“The total number of stocks this year is planned for more than 400 thousand individuals. Today we have carried out stocking of the cooling pond with fry of grass carp and carp, which well cleanse the pond from blue-green algae and white shellfish. This year, for the first time at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, the workers of the hydrotechnical department were able to get the incubation of grass carp, which we plan to release into the cooling pond next year for cleaning from the Amazon shell ", - said Pavel Borisenko, head of the hydrotechnical department of the Zaporizhzhya NPP, about the breeding and stocking process. p>

Today, the quantity and purpose of fish that are bred in the hydro shop of the Zaporizhzhya NPP is optimal for high-quality cleaning of the reservoir.
