The Polish government is expecting to complete technology selection for the country’s first nuclear power plant project by the end of this year, according to climate and environment minister Michal Kurtyka.

Mr Kurtyka told the RMF radio station that a decision about the final location of the first station will be taken in 2022.

He said localisation activities are most advanced for sites in the northern province of Pomerania along the Baltic coast, where at least two, but also four nuclear units could be built.
