Egypt’s Nuclear and Radiation Control Authority (ENRRA) has granted permission to Russia’s Rosatom State Atomic Energy Corporation for the construction of the El-Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant’s 3rd unit with a capacity of 1,200 megawatts, ENRRA said in a statement.
The authority last Wednesday approved the permission to establish the third unit at the Hyena Station.
The third unit will be built at Hyena Station. El-Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant, located in Matrouh governorate, will house four nuclear power reactors that generate 1,200 megawatts each.
Egypt contracted Rastom in 2015 to build El-Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant. The deal is worth $30 billion.
