Aiming to fulfil EU alignment requirements and to underpin the competitiveness of Paks nuclear power station, its operator, Paksi Atomeromu Rt, will spend HF60billion ($250 million) on investment projects serving nuclear safety and the effectiveness of current production by 2002, making it virtually earthquake-proof and increasing generation capacity by at least 50 MWe in the process. The upgrades will be carried out at the rate of a bloc per annum, starting this year.
