Russian-Spanish consortium sign MoU to manufacture Dabaa plant components

The National Authority for Military Production signed an MoU on Saturday with Proton Technologies to locally manufacture components for the pipelines system that will be used to build the Dabaa nuclear power plant, according to Al Shorouk. Proton Technologies — a consortium comprised of Russia’s Tubes 2000 and Spain’s Tubacex — is expected to present a feasibility study on the project, Tubacex CEO Jesus Esmoris said, without providing a timeline for the project. Russian nuclear energy company Rosatom had submitted last month its safety analysis report on the nuclear power plant to the Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority (EAEA).
