– Establishment of Alstom-Atomenergomash proves that our market is regarded as one of the leading producers of nuclear equipment

The establishment of Alstom-Atomenergomash has proved that our market is regarded as one of the leading producers of nuclear equipment, as one of the most attractive and dynamic markets in the world.

The integration of the best foreign and national technologies under Seversk NPP project will allow not only building one of the most modern and safest nuclear power plants in the world but also developing Russian-French cooperation in the field of peaceful use of nuclear energy. We will also be able to see how much compatible our and French technologies are. This experience can be used under other projects in other countries and will be a kind of competitive advantage of that JV.

Besides, Atomenergoprom will be able to reduce the cost of contracts for engineering and construction of nuclear power plants. The saved money may be spent on intensification of engineering of new nuclear power plants and enhancement of safety of existing ones.
