Hungary plans to cooperate with the United States in the field of nuclear energy, including the use of small modular reactors (SMRs) in American Westinghouse. After the meeting with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Affairs of Hungary Peter Siararto stated this on March 4.
"We discussed with Marco Rubio the possibility of developing Hungarian-American energy cooperation, in which nuclear energy is a priority.
Both Hungary and the United States play an important role in ensuring the security of nuclear energy supply, so technological cooperation is promising in this area, "the Foreign Minister wrote on Facebook.
"Westinghouse is one of the leading companies in the world's nuclear technology market and can play an important role in creating small, modular nuclear power plants, which can be built in a short time.
These small power plants will be able to reliably produce a large amount of electricity in an environmentally friendly way, so we are interested in developing this technology with WestingHouse, "Sijyarto said.
