Nucleoeléctrica, CNNC sign Atucha 3 contract
The commercial framework contract for the
construction of a third reactor at the Atucha plant in Argentina has
been signed between Nucleoeléctrica Argentina and China National Nuclear
Corporation (CNNC).
Nucleoeléctrica, as the owner and architect engineer of the project, will conduct pre-project, design, construction, commissioning and operation of the new 800MWe Candu 6 unit. CNNC will provide technical support, services, equipment and instrumentation under a USD 2B long-term financing arrangement. In addition, China will also supply materials needed by Argentina to locally produce components for the unit.
CNNC operates two Candu 6 units at its Qinshan plant in China's Zhejiang province, which will be the reference plant for the new Atucha unit.
The framework contract also calls for the creation of five commissions – including one on funding – that will meet in Buenos Aires to develop around 12 specific contracts related to the new reactor. These should be signed during the first few months of next year. The signing of the framework contract for Atucha 3 follows that of a high-level agreement towards the unit's construction. That accord was signed in mid-July as part of a meeting in Buenos Aires between Chinese President, Xi Jinping, and Argentine President, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.
