Ontario Power Generation (OPG) and Orlen Synthos Green Energy (OSGE) have signed a letter of intent that paves the way for the Canadian company to provide Poland-based OSGE with a range of services for the implementation and operation of small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) in Poland.

The agreement builds on a previous agreement announced by the companies in June 2023.

OSGE plans to build a fleet of BWRX-300 reactors from the US company GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy.

OSGE is a partnership between state-controlled energy company Orlen and private partner Synthos Green Energy.
