Framatome will upgrade the no-break power supply systems with new components.

This contract is part of the lifetime extension of the existing reactors and plays a key role in ensuring security of supply of low-carbon electricity for Bulgaria.

Guirec Maugat, Senior Executive Vice President of the Installed Base Business Unit of Framatome, said: “We are proud to contribute to the lifetime extension of the Kozloduy power plant. The renewal of this multi-year service contract reaffirms the solid partnership between Framatome and Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant, built over two decades.”

Kozloduy is Bulgaria’s only nuclear power plant, providing over a third of the annual national electricity production.
