MOSCOW, March 13 (RIA Novosti) - Russia's state-owned nuclear power generator, Rosenergoatom, is mulling a proposal from electricity monopoly Unified Energy Systems to build two nuclear power plants in the country's Far East, Rosenergoatom head said Monday.
Stanislav Antipov told journalists that UES subsidiary Federal Grid Company had made the proposal to Rosenergoatom. He added the move was motivated by China's desire to buy up to 30 billion kilowatt hours of power from Russia annually.
Antipov said the possibility was being discussed as an idea, not yet as a business offer.
