AMMONNEWS - 'The final cost of the first nuclear power plant construction project in Jordan will be known in the spring of 2017,after the construction documents' preparation,' said the head of Rosatom, Sergei Kiriyenko * *.
'We have exactly two years and started in March 2015, and, accordingly, in the spring of 2017 we will have the final understanding of the feasibility study and implementation plan, after that the appropriate decision will be adopted by the Jordanian Government, and, the price will be fixed, as well as the final terms and conditions to attract investors,' S. Kiriyenko told reporters.
In addition, he did not rule out that the specific investors will be determined on this date, which will be included in the project. 'The Government of Jordan allows the possibility of attracting investors both the private and foreign. But again, I'd like to emphasizethat this decision was made by the government of Jordan,' he said.
However, it is known that the construction of a nuclear reactor costs at least $ 5 billion, Jordan agreed to the construction of two power units.
'Until the investments stage's end I could not provide any data in regard to numbers and dates pertaining to Jordan, 'said the head of 'Rosatom'.
He also noticed that the Russian Federation attaches great importance to the cooperation with Jordan in the nuclear industry. 'The key intergovernmental agreement was signed earlier this year in March, following a tender, in which the Government of Jordan had chosen the Russian technology to build the first nuclear plant,' said S. Kiriyenko.
The head of Rosatom recalled that the Government of Jordan intends to build the first nuclear power plant of two units and at the moment the site has been already selected. 'Now we have now moved to the second phase of work. The period from 2015 to 2017 is a pre-investment stage. We are currently working on the development site in order to incorporate more accurate technical and economic calculation into the data. The key issue in Jordan - is water,' he said.
Electricity supply is also an extremely important issue, which should be resolved, noted S. Kiriyenko. 'This project is an opportunity to export electricity. There is a number of countries surrounding Jordan thatare interested in obtaining electricitybut it requires an appropriate study,' said the head of the state corporation.
