The aim of the “Polish Nuclear Power Program” is to build and commission nuclear power plants in Poland with a total installed capacity of approx. 6 to approx. 9 GWe, based on proven, pressure-based, pressure-based generation III (+) nuclear reactors.
The adoption by the Council of Ministers of the resolution submitted by the Ministry of Climate updating the” Polish Nuclear Energy Program “is a milestone on our country’s path to having a stable, zero-emission energy source.

The program, as a government project implemented by a state-owned company, provides for the use of large and proven pressurized water-type reactors, with a unit capacity exceeding 1,000 MWe, incl. due to extensive operating experience and excellent safety characteristics. The selected locations for nuclear power plants are the same as those specified in the “Polish Nuclear Power Program” of 2014.
