KGHM Polska Meidz SA have made the decision to construct a power plant which is going to be based on the NuScale Power modular reactor. KGHM have logged their application and they did this on the same day that PEJ went ahead to apply for their decision-in-principle. They did this on the construction of the first large-scale power plant. Of course, later in the month, they also applied for a decision-in-principle for the construction of the GE Hitachi power plant. This is for the BWRX-300 which is going to be present at over six locations. KGHM have come out to say that they are going to be as prepared as possible and that they are preparing everything based on the project documentation that they have received. The decision-in-principle has been issued now and they have said that they are working with selected conditions while enabling the general construction of the VOYGR modular power plant.
The decision represents the official state for the investment, and they have also acted in accordance with the permits and investments which are going to take place at a number of facilities. They are doing this for anything that an investor may want to apply for. Obtaining this entitles the KGHM to apply for any number of arrangements and this could include a decision for a construction license. The goal, at the end of the day, is to ensure that energy is price stable as this is going to allow them to maintain their advantage on a global scale. Who knows what is going to happen next, but one thing is for sure, and that's the fact that more has to be done to make sure that people are getting the help that they need to bring this project to life.
