The arbitration court in St. Petersburg refused the owner of the Polish section of the Yamal gas pipeline to take its case to the arbitration court in Stockholm.

„If we add all the capacities of the planned SMRs, we will get a sum exceeding Poland’s demand for power, even if we do not count other sources. So it is clear that they cannot all be built. But which ones will… Here we can refer to the words of Zhou Enlai: it is too […]

Poland may be forced to introduce a contract for difference as a financing mechanism for nuclear power plants, which it did not want to use.
