Armenia Chooses France's Areva To Build New Nuclear Waste Facility
Yerevan (AFP) Oct 03, 2005 The Armenian government has chosen a subsidiary of France's energy group Areva to build a new 10-million-euro (12-million-dollar) nuclear waste facility for the country's controversial Metsamor reactor, the Armenian energy ministry said on Monday. Cogema Logistics, a unit of Areva, will build a second waste disposal facility in three phases between 2007-2018, said a spokesperson at the ministry, Lucin Arutyunian. The European Union has asked Armenia to close the Metsamor reactor because of safety concerns, but the power station, built in 1977, accounts for about 40 percent of electricity production in the country.
