First concrete is likely to be poured for the Russia-supplied Paks 2 nuclear power station at the beginning of 2025, the director-general of state nuclear corporation Alexey Likhachev said during a visit to the site on Friday (22 September).
In parallel, Rosatom will begin the manufacturing of long lead equipment for the project to build two Generation III+ VVER-1200 pressurised water reactor (PWR) units for the expansion of the existing Paks nuclear station, in south-central Hungary.
