US-based Westinghouse and Bechtel have completed a front-end engineering and design (Feed) study for the construction of nuclear power plants in Poland, the Polish Press Agency (PAP) reported.
PAP said the Feed study is to be part of the US offer to the Polish government to build Westinghouse AP1000 nuclear power plants in the eastern European country. The plants would be Poland’s first commercial nuclear units as Warsaw moves away from coal-fired energy while maintaining its energy independence.
According to PAP, the Feed study includes an outline plan for the construction of three AP1000 plants and ancillary facilities at the Lubiatowo-Kopalino site in northern Poland.
