"Our agreement with Westinghouse is a clear response to today's energy challenges and further strengthens the role of Hungary's leading base power plant in the domestic energy supply. This strategically important step will make the operation of Paks Nuclear Power Plant safer and more flexible. The diversified fuel procurement reduces external exposures and provides predictability and affordable energy for families and corporate customers," said Károly Mátrai, CEO of MVM Group.
