US-based Westinghouse has authorized Energoatom to use its technology to build a nuclear fuel plant in Ukraine, Igor Nasalik, Minister of Energy and Coal Industry, told the Rada Friday. At present, a Westinghouse plant in Sweden supplies 46% of nuclear fuel used in Ukraine’s 15 VVER reactors. Russia’s state-owned TVEL Fuel Company supplies the other 54%. Nuclear power supplies about one half of Ukraine’s electricity.
