"Rosatom" plans to build five NPPs. This was announced by the head of the state corporation, Alexey Likhachev.
Many countries want to join the nuclear energy club, we are ready to work with everyone, and negotiations are underway with probably about two dozen countries. These are Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Vietnam, and I very much hope that one more European country will be among them.
In Uzbekistan, the construction of a small NPP is planned, and the project is expected to start in approximately three years. Kazakhstan is currently selecting contractors for the construction of a large NPP. The shortlist of potential suppliers of reactor technologies includes not only "Rosatom", but also the Korean company KHNP, the French EDF, and the Chinese CNNC. Intergovernmental agreements and contracts will be concluded in November of this year.
As for Kyrgyzstan, last week "Rosatom" submitted a preliminary feasibility study (pre-FS) to the country's Ministry of Energy for the construction of a small nuclear power plant project.
The state corporation is also ready to offer the construction of two VVER-1200 units in Vietnam. Likhachev previously explained that the country decided to return to the Ninh Thuan-1 NPP project, which was suspended in 2016. In January, Rosatom Energy Projects and the Electricity Corporation of Vietnam signed a memorandum of understanding to develop cooperation in the field of nuclear energy.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that Rosatom may decommission the BN-350 sodium-cooled reactor at MAEK in Kazakhstan.
