Nuclear industry leader signs MOU with 12 Polish companies for future work

Bechtel, a trusted leader in engineering, construction and project management, today signed memorandums of understanding with 12 Polish companies for the potential development of two new civilian nuclear power plants as that country seeks to transition to cleaner energy sources while maintaining its independence. The MoUs were signed in a ceremony at the US Ambassador’s residence in Warsaw.

The companies provide services ranging from earthworks and infrastructure construction to concrete, tunneling, electrical installations and heavy cranes.

“Building these plants would require Polish expertise and thousands of skilled Polish workers,” said Ahmet Tokpinar, general manager of Bechtel’s Nuclear Power business. “As an EPC partner for these projects, Bechtel intends to join a large number of Polish companies as key members of our subcontracting team. Now is the time to identify these future supply chain partners.

U.S. Ambassador to Poland Mark Brzezinski said, “This marks another milestone in a project that will bring our countries even closer together over a 100-year partnership. The U.S. Embassy in Poland is pleased to support Bechtel and Westinghouse in selecting local Polish suppliers for this strategic project.

Bechtel and Westinghouse Electric Company are jointly preparing an initial engineering design for government review of a three-unit power plant on the Baltic Sea coast. The plant, using Westinghouse AP1000 reactors, would be Poland’s first civilian nuclear power plant.

The first 12 companies to sign the MoUs include some of the largest and largest Polish heavy construction and engineering companies:

  • BAKS – Manufacture of electrical cable trays.
  • Budimex – General contractor in the infrastructure sectors: road, rail, airport; building, energy, industrial and environment.
  • Doraco – General contractor, construction, tunneling and assembly.
  • Energoprojekt – Katowice SA – Engineering for electrical, chemical, petrochemical and industrial installations.
  • Hitachi Energy Poland – Manufacture of transformers, high voltage products, business software and substation automation systems
  • ILF – Engineering of industrial projects and infrastructures
  • KB Pomorze – Engineering, procurement, construction of refineries, petrochemical plants, handling and storage terminals
  • Mostostal Warzsawa – General contractor in all sectors
  • Polimex Mostostal – General contractor and engineering in the energy, petrochemical and environmental protection sectors.
  • Protea Group – Cranes, lifting and handling equipment
  • Vistal Gdynia SA – Steel fabrication and assembly of modules
  • Zarmen – Electrical installations, manufacture of electrical equipment

Other agreements will follow in the future.

Bechtel and Westinghouse bring practical expertise to nuclear construction. Bechtel has built or serviced more than 80 reactors in the United States and 150 worldwide in all major designs. Bechtel is currently completing construction of the only ongoing nuclear power plant expansion in the United States, at Plant Vogtle in Georgia. This two-unit expansion also uses Westinghouse AP1000 reactors.
