Rosatom Global of Russia confirmed on Monday that it had submitted basic design stage 1 documentation for the Hanhikivi-1 nuclear power plant to Finland’s Fennovoima.
The state company said on social media that the documentation serves as the foundation for the preliminary safety analysis report, which Finnish regulator Stuk will need to approve before a construction licence for the new plant can be issued by Finland’s government.
Fennovoima confirmed that it had conditionally accepted the basic design stage 1 documents from plant supplier Raos Project, a subsidiary of Rosatom, and that it was “a significant achievement for the project”.
