Westinghouse Rendering of AP1000® for Poland

Bechtel will perform the Engineering, Procurement and Construction activities to construct 3 AP1000® units at the Lubiatowo-Kopalino site. Using once-through cool­ing to and from the Baltic Sea, the design uses a simpli­fied and innovative approach to safety.
