Romania to build six small modular nuclear reactors near Bucharest with US financing
romania-insider.com/romania-small-modular-nuclear-reactors-near-bucharest-us-2024
Quick Glance: Romania Plans Construction of Six Small Modular Nuclear Reactors near Bucharest
- Romania, in collaboration with the United States, aims to construct six small modular reactors approximately 90 kilometers from Bucharest. These facilities have the capacity to supply electricity to 46,000 households and potentially generate 4,000 job opportunities. The total investment amounts to 6 billion US dollars, with a portion being funded by the US.
- The proposed reactors in the town of Doicești, situated in Dâmbovița county, could become operational by the conclusion of 2029. Originating from the United States, these reactors will mark their debut implementation in Romania.
- Sebastian Burduja, Romania's Minister of Energy, envisions this project as a catalyst for positioning Romania at the forefront of the nuclear sector. Consultations with American experts validate the safety of the technology for the residents of Doicești.
- The US Ambassador to Bucharest, Kathleen Kavalec, disclosed that the funding for the SMR project in Dâmbovița county, totaling 4 billion US dollars, will be provided by the EXIM Bank and the US International Development Finance Corporation. The construction activities are scheduled to continue until 2030.
