Poland and Polish Discussion Group and Forum

Welcome to the original English language Poland and Polish discussion group board. This message forum is a place where English-speaking Poles, foreigners (expats) living in Poland, and anyone with a genuine interest in Poland can discuss and read the views of others concerning Poland. Subjects include: Polish news and current affairs; Life in Poland; politics; genealogy research; Polish culture and history; advice and tips on visiting Poland; Polish property and investment issues. The aim of our group is to increase awareness of wonderful Poland using the English language and allow and foster the honest debate and exchange of opinions on anything vaguely related to Poland and Polish - positive, negative and/or neutral! This discussion group is not an open-to-all public message board. Membership is by invitation only and therefore given that a fairly limited number of people have full access, it is more of a community blog than a straightforward forum. This application system was brought in to lessen the amount of spam and nonsensical and commercial posts made by casual visitors and off-topic and offensive posts left by a disruptive minority. To ask  a one-off question about Poland or respond to comments made on this board without a password just email us and provided it is at least halfway sensible, we'll post it on the board for all to see and current members will try to respond! All opinions and views expressed on this site are solely those of their respective authors and are not necessarily those of anyone else!

Nuclear Power Plant to be built in Kalingrad Russia

Perhaps not good news if you live in north-east Poland?

Kaliningrad to Get Nuclear Power Plant

17 April 2008

The country will build an atomic power station in its European exclave of Kaliningrad and invite bids from foreign companies to buy up to 49 percent of the plant, the country's nuclear chief said Wednesday.

It plans to build the 2.3-gigawatt plant in the east of the Kaliningrad region, a tiny outpost surrounded by Lithuania, Poland and the Baltic Sea.

A special company will be created to manage the two-reactor plant and up to 49 percent of it could be sold to a foreign investor at a tender, Sergei Kiriyenko, chief of the Rosatom state nuclear corporation, told reporters.

The plant will be the first in the Kaliningrad region.

"We are ready to offer foreign companies, above all European companies, up to 49 percent of the Kaliningrad atomic power station," Kiriyenko said, according to comments supplied by his spokesman.

It'll keep the Polish-Lithuanian joint venture nuclear power station company.

Successive Polish governments knew nuclear power wouldn't be an issue if they put it just over the border.

Clever, really.
