KYIV. July 20 (Interfax-Ukraine) - The Ukrainian Cabinet at its Wednesday session approved preparations for the construction of two new power units at Khmelnitsky nuclear power station, Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko has said.
"We will be building so that nuclear power engineering would become a reliable factor of supplying the nation with electricity," she told a news conference after the Cabinet session.
Energoatom corporation operates all the four Ukrainian nuclear power stations with 15 power units with a combined capacity of 13,835 megawatts. Last year it commissioned the second power unit at the Khmelnitsky station and the fourth power unit at the Rivne station.
