It also includes other important aspects such as factory configuration, industrial plans, local supply chain development plans, estimated costs and timetables. EDF said in a statement: “This EPR-based nuclear program will bring many benefits to the Polish economy, help the country’s energy independence, provide electricity for at least 60 years, and meet up to 40% of Poland’s current electricity Demand.
