“Turkish companies are actively involved in the implementation of the Akkuyu NPP construction project. There are hundreds of Turkish companies providing materials, equipment, services and carrying out various works in the project. Today, the volume of orders given to Turkish suppliers already exceeds 3 billion dollars. The project makes a significant contribution to the development of the region's infrastructure and employment growth,” said Alexey Likhachev, Director General of ROSATOM.

“Currently, more than 25,000 people work at the Akkuyu NPP site, of which approximately 80% are citizens of the Republic of Turkey. Workers in the region are actively involved in the project. In the last year, more than 600 people from Gülnar district were employed on the field. According to the Social Security Institution of the Republic of Turkey, Akkuyu NPP is the largest employer in Mersin.”

“All work on the project is carried out in close cooperation with the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, the Nuclear Regulatory Agency (NDK), the Turkish Agency for Research in Energy, Atomic Energy and Mining (TENMAK), and other relevant departments of the Republic of Turkey, with the approval of the IAEA,” Likhachev noted.

On May 12, 2010, the Governments of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Turkey signed a Cooperation Agreement providing for the construction of Akkuyu nuclear power plant comprised of four power units with VVER-1200 reactors with a total capacity of 4800 MW on the southern coast of Turkey in Mersin province.

Under the terms of the Agreement, on December 13, 2010, the Russian side established a project company in the territory of the Republic of Turkey - AKKUYU NUCLEAR Joint-Stock Company (AKKUYU NÜKLEER ANONİM ŞİRKETİ).

The Akkuyu NPP construction project in Turkey is the world's first NPP project implemented according to the BOO model (Build - Own - Operate). Under the long-term contract, the company has undertaken to provide the power plant's design, construction, maintenance, operation, and decommissioning.

The stake of Rosatom State Corporation in the project is 99.2%. The total project cost is estimated at 20 billion US dollars. (ILKHA)
