Fortum and VTT have signed a letter of intent on cooperation in the decommissioning of the FIR 1 research reactor and the nuclear power plant structural materials research laboratory.
The cooperation will make Fortum's long experience in nuclear power plant operation and nuclear waste management available to VTT. In addition to cooperation over dismantling and waste handling, the companies investigate possibilities for interim storage and final disposal of the decommissioning waste at the Loviisa nuclear power plant site.
