It was then called the urban settlement of Novo-Graessovsky, but renamed its current name later the same year. The first unit of 210 MW of the Novovoronezh Nuclear Power Plant was put into power on September 30, 1964. From 1959 to 1963 Novovoronezh was the center of the Novovoronezh district, and its administrative status was upgraded from the urban settlement to a town in 1987.
