Nuclear new-build
Together for the environment
Clean air, clean soil, clean energy. Nuclear power plants generate a large volume of environmentally friendly, emission-free electricity on a small area.
Future of the energy sector in the Czech Republic
We will continue to ensure a sufficient volume of reliable, environmentally friendly and affordable energy for Czech households, businesses, as well as municipalities in the future.
Czech nuclear know-how
The Czech Republic was one of the first countries to implement nuclear technology. We have dozens of years of experience and can use our valuable know-how well.
