Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Wins Contract for Nuclear Power Plant Equipment Supply Project in Slovenia

[Sejong=Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Haeyoung] Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) announced on the 12th that it has been selected as the final supplier for the 'Kr?ko Nuclear Power Plant Secondary Equipment Cooling Water Heat Exchanger Supply' project commissioned by the Slovenian Nuclear Company (NEK).

According to KHNP, this project is worth approximately 1.2 million euros (about 1.634 billion KRW). It involves installing key equipment that removes heat from the secondary equipment cooling system of the nuclear power plant, such as the generator stator cooler.

KHNP will be responsible for project management and quality control, while the domestic small and medium-sized enterprise Mytec will handle the design and manufacturing of the equipment. Construction and commissioning will be carried out by a local Slovenian company.

KHNP is solidifying its position as a major equipment supplier in the Slovenian nuclear power market. Last year, the company secured contracts in Slovenia for supplying the nuclear power plant moisture separator reheater magnetic substance removal device (MSRD) and for feasibility evaluation services of the main control room alarm system and post-accident sampling system.

Jung Jae-hoon, President of KHNP, said, "This achievement is an example of expanding export channels for domestic nuclear power technology through win-win cooperation with small and medium-sized enterprises," adding, "We will continue to do our best to enter overseas nuclear power markets together with many domestic SMEs."
