International bidding for Egypt's first nuclear power plant is postponed
The international bidding process for the construction of Egypt’s first nuclear power plant for electricity generation in Al Dabgha has been postponed, Al Ahram newspaper reported.
 The tender will be postponed until the political situation in Egypt stablises, to ensure the largest number of companies from around the world enter the bid.
 "An international consultant is currently working with the Ministry of Electricity and Energy to identify additional locations to Al Dabgha for the construction of a nuclear plant and develop the necessary infrastructure for it", said Beltone Financial.
