US reactor developer NuScale and Poland’s KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. (KGHM) have signed an agreement to begin the deployment of NuScale’s small modular reactor technology with the first plant scheduled to be operational in the eastern European country in 2029.
The agreement, due to be officially announced in Washington on 14 February, is between Oregon-based NuScale Power and KGHM, a Poland-based leader in copper and silver production and large industrial energy user. It will see the two organisations work towards deployment of a first NuScale Voygr plant.
The first task under the agreement will be to identify and assess potential project sites and develop project planning milestones and cost estimates.
