US small modular reactor developer Holtec has signed a memorandum of agreement with engineering multinationals Škoda Praha and Hyundai Engineering and Construction to advance the planning for construction of SMR-160s in the Czech Republic.
Under the Agreement, the parties will develop the division of responsibilities for procurement, construction, and commissioning of SMR-160 plants in the Czech Republic.
Holtec said in a statement the parties will also develop a cost estimate for deployment of the SMR-160 standard design in the Czech Republic.
The agreement follows a memorandum of understanding signed between Holtec and the Czech nuclear operator ČEZ last month.
