US energy company Westinghouse presented Tuesday a new generation nuclear reactor in Sofia by invitation of Bulgarian Minister of Economy and Energy Traicho Traikov.

The model of the 3+ generation reactor in question is AP 1000 and it takes into fullest possible account the issue of safety.

Tuesday minister Traikov also met Westinghouse vice-president for Southern Europe Jose Gutierres, who presented his company's advances in the field of safety management systems for NPPs.

Another topic of discussion was Westinghouse's possible contribution to the full decomissioning of Units 1-4 of Bulgaria's Kozloduy NPP.

The name of Westinghouse was mentioned as a possible contractor to build additional two units to Kozloduy, a project that is still very much up in the air.

Westinghouse was moreover mentioned as a possible participant in the execution of the projected Belene NPP, where the main contractor is Russian Atomstroyeksport.
