Korea to Build Nuclear Reactors in Poland

Korea will sell its homegrown APR 1400 nuclear reactors to Poland under a deal worth up to W30 trillion (US$1=W1,424).

The deal marks the first sale of Korean nuclear equipment since President Yoon Suk-yeol reversed the previous administration’s nuclear phaseout policy earlier this year.

The last Korean nuclear plant deal was to the UAE during the Lee Myung-bak administration in 2009. The latest deal raises hopes of further orders from countries that recognize Korea’s edge in nuclear reactor technology and plant construction.

Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Lee Chang-yang and Polish Minister for State Assets Jacek Sasin signed a memorandum of understanding at the Plaza Hotel in Seoul on Monday.

The project involves construction of two to four 1.4-GW nuclear reactors on the site of a coal power plant in Patnow, central Poland that will be closed down next year. The deal is worth between W10 trillion and W30 trillion and construction is expected to start before 2026.

Earlier, the Polish government selected U.S.-based Westinghouse Electric to build six 1-1.6-GW nuclear power plants.

EIA není potřeba. Soud otevřel cestu k opravě nejdelšího mostu přes Brenner

Obce v oblasti Brenneru by místo mostu raději měly tunel. Proti jsou Zelení. Rakouský spolkový soud vynesl na konci minulého týdne rozhodnutí, kterým dal za pravdu ministerstvu dopravy: nejdelší most na dálnici A13 s názvem Luegbrücke u hraničního přechodu s Itálii může projít opravou i bez posouzení vlivu na životní prostředí (proces EIA). Posouzení požadovaly zejména obce rozkládající…
