The signing ceremony was attended by Ukraine Energy Minister <span class=\"xn-person\">Herman Halushchenko<\/span>, and United States Charge d&#8217;affaires to <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-person\">Kristina Kvien<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Agreement signed with partners from Westinghouse opens a new stage in the development of <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine&#8217;s<\/span> nuclear energy sector. Construction of new power units is essential for energy independence of our country. Moreover, we are becoming the driving force that will pave the way for <span class=\"xn-location\">Europe<\/span> to carbon neutrality. Energoatom, in cooperation with our American partners, is ready to make the green transition to clean and affordable energy,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Petro Kotin<\/span>, Acting President of NNEGC Energoatom.<\/p>\n<p>In August it was announced that Energoatom had selected Westinghouse AP1000 technology for its long-term goals to develop new nuclear power plants in <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine<\/span>. The exclusive agreement provides that Westinghouse and Energoatom will pursue AP1000 reactor projects to help the country reach decarbonization and its energy security goals. The AP1000 plant is a proven Gen III+ reactor. It has unique fully passive safety systems, modularized standard design, high operability performance and load following capability. The AP1000 projects will provide Energoatom and <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine<\/span> with substantial economic and localization benefits through the construction and operating life of each reactor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are proud to continue our partnership with Energoatom in supporting its objectives to develop nuclear power plants in <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine<\/span>. This contract to build the first AP1000 plant at the Khmelnytskyi site brings the country one step closer to reaching its de-carbonization and energy security objectives. We look forward to continuing our work with Energoatom to ensure that <span class=\"xn-location\">Ukraine<\/span> is able to utilize clean, reliable, and cost-effective nuclear energy for the future,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Patrick Fragman<\/span>, President and CEO of Westinghouse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, Pa., Dec. 1, 2021 \/PRNewswire\/ &#8212; Westinghouse Electric Company and Energoatom, the state-owned nuclear utility of Ukraine, signed a contract recently in Kyiv, Ukraine, outlining the details of their agreement to bring Westinghouse AP1000\u00ae reactors to Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant.
