The Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) launched a showroom displaying
mock-ups of nuclear equipment in Hanoi on June 4, aiming to help the
public understand the importance of nuclear power plant projects and
boost consensus about the work.

As part of the cooperation
programme between the EVN and the International Nuclear Energy
Development of Japan Co., Ltd (JINED), the showroom is also featuring a
mock-up of a nuclear power plant borrowed from the Japan-based
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.

In his opening speech, EVN
General Director Pham Le Thanh said his group is stepping up the
establishment of nuclear power plant projects, following a first in the
central province of Ninh Thuan , which has been given the green
light by the National Assembly.

He also emphasised the
importance of public support for a nuclear power plant project, in
addition to a range of other factors, including advanced technologies,
human resources, investment capital and a waste treatment system.

The EVN and JINED have teamed up to organise a number of relevant
exhibitions, conferences and training courses on public relations for
their officials.

The showroom is open to visitors to make sense of nuclear equipment and nuclear power in general.-VNA
