Summary sheet
Investment in safety improvements including replacement of emergency diesel generators and reactor internal pumps, as well as introduction of a new additional emergency feedwater system at the Olkiluoto (Finland) nuclear power plant
The project will contribute to improvements in safety and reliability of low-carbon electricity supply.
Based on technical characteristics of the safety upgrade investment project schemes they will not require environmental impact assessments. The project works are planned to be implemented at an existing operational site and they are mostly related to replacement of existing equipment. The project activities are expected to have minimal environmental impact. The typically anticipated impact is mainly temporary and relates to construction and installation works and can usually be well managed by appropriate measures taken during project implementation.
The promoter is a private company operating in the utilities sector; however the electricity sector in Finland, based on an exemption granted by the European Commission, is not subject to EU rules on public procurement.
