Public information about the Belene Project

  • There is currently an intense debate in society about the future of nuclear energy, including the two promising projects that are in the process of structuring and selecting options for implementation:

    • The project for construction of new nuclear capacity on the approved new site near Kozloduy.

    • The project for construction of nuclear capacity at the Belene site.

  • As a major non-governmental organization, representing the position and interests of the companies from the nuclear sector in Bulgaria, BULATOM supports all efforts aimed at finding a working formula for the implementation of each of these projects in the shortest possible time.

  • Full and detailed information about the project for construction of nuclear capacity at the approved new site near Kozloduy can be found at the following link.
  • At the same time, currently, due to the lack of an active project organization for the Belene NPP, the society is deprived of a source of publicly available information about the history, characteristics, and prospects of this project.

  • With the development of this website, BULATOM aims to provide the public with synthesized up-to-date information in the form of an interactive publicly accessible internet-based platform dedicated to the Belene NPP project.

  • The development of the site is based entirely on public information from various sources, including the archives of BULATOM.

  • Providing the above information in a synthesized and structured form, BULATOM accepts that this information sufficiently reflects the main features of the project that have become publicly available over the years, without being responsible for the grounds and reliability of the analyzes used as a basis for publishing of the used public sources. 
  • Accordingly, the use of the information published in this platform for purposes other than general familiarization with the scope of information on the Belene NPP project, which has become available over the years, is entirely beyond the responsibility of the Bulgarian Atomic Forum.

  • Upon request of BULATOM collection of the public information, its processing and organization, as well as the presentation in this platform was performed by the consultancy company SELMEDA Ltd.
