PFR: We can finance nuclear plant project with ‘several PLN blns”

The state-run Polish Development Fund PFR can invest “several PLN billions” in the planned nuclear plant, PFR President Paweł Borys said. “The topic of potential participation in financing the construction of a nuclear power plant has been brought up and we declare that we are just financing large infrastructure projects of this type. This project is also important from the perspective of diversification of energy mix and the reduction of CO2 emissions. That’s why, we, as PFR, can possibly engage in this type of project from the financial side,” Borys explained. Poland wants to have 4.5 GW nuclear power capacity and estimates the cost of the project at PN 70 billion.
