The group, run by the Team Korea consortium, will aim to submit an initial proposal in the first quarter of 2022. Talks with the Polish government are yet to determine the deadline for a final offer.
KHNP said it will offer its 1,345 MW APR-1400 pressurised water reactor design to Poland in a bid which will be competitive in terms of price, construction schedule, and technology.
Four APR-1400 PWR units have been deployed overseas at the Barakah nuclear power station in the United Arab Emirates, with one already in commercial operation.

France can achieve its net-zero emissions target by 2050 through energy efficiency and electrification that would lead to a 35% increase in electricity demand, the French grid operator has said in a new report. Of the scenarios considered by Réseau de Transport d'Electricité (RTE), the cheapest implies constructing 14 large new nuclear power reactors, plus a fleet of small modular reactors, as well as significantly investing in renewables.
