Loviisa Nuclear Power Plant

Loviisa Nuclear Power Plant


The Loviisa Nuclear Power Station is located close to the Finnish city Loviisa and houses two PWR reactors. They are of the type VVER-440/213 with a capacity of 488 MW each. In order to comply with newly developed Finnish regulations, Westinghouse supplied the instrumentation and Siemens supplied the sleeves. Due to this unorthodox approach of supplying some things from American companies and the rest from a Soviet company, the plant got the nickname of "Eastinghouse". The plant is operated by Fortum Oyj.
