"In 2017, 2019 and 2020 we plan to commission 3 nuclear icebreakers with the capacity of up to 60 MW. The Iceberg Design Bureau is expected to create a powerful nuclear icebreaker with the capacity of up to 130 MW, which will secure ice escort. The icebreaker will be more than 50 metres wide," Rogozin said.
