Finnish experts will advise Estonia on the nuclear power plant project

Finland's TVO Nuclear Services has signed a framework agreement to advise on the construction of a small reactor nuclear power plant in Estonia with Fermi Energia.

TVO Nuclear Services, a Finnish nuclear energy company, has entered into a framework agreement with Fermi Energia to act as an advisor in the ongoing project for the construction of a small reactor nuclear power plant in Estonia. This initiative aims to establish a nuclear power plant comprising two 300MW reactors to ensure emission-free and weather-independent electricity production for the coming decades. The involvement of Finnish expertise is seen as crucial for the successful development of this project, highlighting the collaboration between the countries in advancing clean energy solutions.

The CEO of TVO Nuclear Services, Ari Leppänen, expressed satisfaction in supporting Fermi Energia's small reactor project, emphasizing the importance of TVONs' experience and practical solutions in ensuring the safe and effective execution of the project. Finland's extensive expertise in nuclear energy and its strong safety culture are key advantages that will facilitate the planning and implementation of the Estonian small reactor.

This partnership reflects a growing trend in the region to reinforce the role of nuclear energy as a clean energy source. By leveraging Finnish nuclear experience, Estonia is set to benefit from industry best practices, which will contribute to the broader goal of sustainable and secure energy production in the Baltic region and beyond.
