President Pavel inspected the steam turbine production facilities and received explanations about Doosan ?koda Power’s preparations related to the Dukovany nuclear power project and the generator technology to be transferred from Doosan Enerbility.


The Czech Republic selected 'Team Korea,' led by Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, as the preferred bidder for the project to construct two new Dukovany nuclear reactors in July last year. Upon signing the final contract for the Dukovany nuclear power plant, Doosan ?koda Power will supply the steam turbines. Core nuclear power plant equipment such as reactors and steam generators will be supplied by Doosan Enerbility from Korea.


Group Head Son Seung-woo said, "We are honored to have the opportunity to directly demonstrate our steam turbine manufacturing capabilities to President Pavel during this visit," adding, "We will continue to do our best to contribute to the development of the Czech power industry through Doosan ?koda Power."



Doosan ?koda Power is a power equipment specialist with over 150 years of history and has supplied 26 nuclear power plant steam turbines to three countries: the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Finland.
