A Russian company has begun work on two nuclear reactors for the Kudankulam power plant in India, ITAR-Tass reported Thursday (see GSN, Nov. 13).

The Izhora Plants joint-stock company has started construction on two VVER-1000 reactors, which can produce 1,000 megawatts each.  Construction of the reactor casing will take three years, ITAR-Tass reported.  The reactor construction is part of deal signed between India and Russia in November (ITAR-Tass, Jan. 3 in FBIS-SOV, Jan. 3).
