Finland refused the contract with Rosatom for the construction of a nuclear power plant
The Finnish design company Fennovoima terminated the contract with Rosatom for the construction of the Hanhikivi-1 nuclear power plant in Finland.
"Fennovoima terminated the contract for the supply of the Hanhikivi-1 nuclear power plant with Rosatom ," the Finnish company said in a statement.
This means that cooperation with the RAOS project is terminated with immediate effect, as well as design and licensing work, work at the Hanhikivi-1 site with Rosatom, the report says.
"The decision to terminate the EPC contract with RAOS Project (a legal entity of Rosatom in Finland ) was not an easy one. There are significant complexities in such a large project and decisions are made only after careful consideration. We are fully aware of the negative impact and are doing our best to mitigate him," Esa Härmälä, Chairman of the Board of Fennovoima, is quoted in the message.
"There have been significant and growing delays in recent years," the statement said, and events in Ukraine have exacerbated the risks to the project. "RAOS failed to mitigate any of the risks," says the Finnish company.
The Hanhikivi-1 project provided for the construction of a single-unit nuclear power plant based on a modern Russian-designed VVER-1200 generation 3+ reactor with a capacity of 1200 megawatts. The Finnish design company Fennovoima Oy is the customer, owner and operator of the future nuclear power plant. The general supplier of the Hanhikivi-1 NPP is RAOS Project (part of Rosatom).
To date, the project is at the stage of licensing and preparatory work at the NPP construction site.
