Mr. Thomas Epron, AREVA´s Central and Eastern Europe Regional Business Development Director is answering Technický týdeník (Technical Weekly) magazine´s question.
Question: Some time ago there appeared certain information within professional public (and not only domestic one) about ŠKODA JS´s successfully implemented subsupply for the EPR reactor in Finnish Olkiluoto which is being completed by your company. How were (or weren´t) you satisfied with the implementation? Will you invite the Škoda JS´s management for cooperation in further AREVA´s projects?
We do not focus just on the tender in the Czech Republic. We need the best companies in every field. That is the only way how they can help us with construction of nuclear power plants across the world. Škoda JS is an excellent producer of components that cooperates with us in China, Finland and also in France. Concerning our mutual satisfaction, we need to wait for the contract implementation. If both AREVA and Škoda JS are well-content with everything, then there will be no reason why our cooperation should not continue.
