土耳其安塔利亚，11月12日电 —— 加拿大AtkinsRealis公司周四表示，将为土耳其核电计划的扩建进行可行性研究，因为该国正寻求在其南部海岸由俄罗斯建设的在建核电站之外增加新机组。
ANTALYA, Turkey, Nov 12 - Canada's AtkinsRealis said on Thursday it would conduct a feasibility study for an expansion of Turkey's nuclear power programme, as the country looks to add to a Russian-built plant under construction on its southern coast.
AtkinsRealis核能部门总裁Joe St. Julian告诉路透社，与土耳其国有核能公司TUNAS达成的协议包括就在土耳其建设一座六机组、装机容量4.5吉瓦的核电站计划进行讨论。他表示，双方计划在2028年完成工程设计研究，随后做出最终投资决定。
The deal with Turkish state-owned nuclear energy company TUNAS includes discussions on a plan for a six-unit, 4.5-gigawatt plant in Turkey, AtkinsRealis President, Nuclear, Joe St. Julian, told Reuters. The parties plan to complete an engineering design study by 2028, before a final investment decision, he said.
土耳其旨在将其核电计划扩展到由俄罗斯国家原子能集团公司在梅尔辛省建设的装机容量4.8吉瓦的阿库尤核电站之外，已将黑海沿岸锡诺普省和西北部色雷斯地区确定为新核电站的潜在选址。
Turkey is aiming to expand its nuclear programme beyond the 4.8-gigawatt Akkuyu plant under construction by Russia's Rosatom in the Mediterranean province of Mersin, with sites in the Black Sea province of Sinop and the northwestern Thrace region identified as potential locations for new plants.
安卡拉此前曾表示，正与加拿大、韩国、俄罗斯、日本和中国就潜在核电项目进行磋商。土耳其已与加拿大和韩国签署了核能合作谅解备忘录，融资和成本是关键因素。
Ankara has previously said it was in talks with Canada, South Korea, Russia, Japan and China on a potential plant. It has signed memorandums of understanding with Canada and South Korea on nuclear cooperation, with financing and costs a key factor.
上周，在发布国家能源计划时，能源部长Alparslan Bayraktar表示，安卡拉目标是到2040年将核电装机容量提升至10吉瓦，并预计届时核电将满足11%的电力需求。他将2027年描述为锡诺普或色雷斯地区核电规划的决策之年。
Last week, unveiling the country's national energy plan Energy Minister Alparslan Bayraktar said Ankara aims to raise nuclear capacity to 10 GW by 2040 and expects nuclear power to meet 11% of electricity demand by then. He has described 2027 as a decision year for plans in Sinop or Thrace.
AtkinsRealis表示，周四宣布的协议由其子公司Candu Energy在土耳其城市安塔利亚举行的COP31气候峰会期间签署，土耳其将提高电力在全球能源消费中的占比作为首要目标。AtkinsRealis称将进行一项全面研究，计划于2027年底前完成，针对潜在的多机组核电项目，并开展前端工程设计（FEED）工作。
The agreement announced on Thursday was signed by AtkinsRealis subsidiary Candu Energy on the sidelines of the COP31 climate summit in the Turkish city of Antalya, where Turkey has made increasing the share of electricity in global energy use a top goal AtkinsRealis said it would carry out a comprehensive study to be completed by the end of 2027 for a potential multi-unit nuclear project, as well as front-end engineering and design (FEED) work.
TUNAS表示，该研究将评估技术层面，包括选址、CANDU重水堆技术对该场址的适配性以及电厂运行，此外还将评估项目融资。
TUNAS said the study would evaluate technical aspects, including the site, adaptation of the CANDU reactor technology to that site, and the operation of the plant, in addition to the project's financing.
圣朱利安表示，已有融资讨论路线图，并称这将是“典型的债权与股权划分”。他表示，加拿大将通过其出口信贷机构提供债权融资的主体部分，其余部分由与其他国家的信贷融资及商业贷款构成。圣朱利安表示，计划中电厂的首台机组预计于2036年发电。
St. Julian said there was a roadmap in place for discussions around financing, adding that it would be a "typical debt versus equity split". Canada would anchor the debt through its export credit agency, with credit financing with other nations and commercial loans making up the remainder, he said. First electricity from the planned plant was expected in 2036, St. Julian said.
上个月，北约盟国加拿大和土耳其在加拿大总理首次对土耳其进行双边访问期间，将双边关系升级为“战略伙伴关系”，核能合作位居议程首位。
Last month, NATO allies Canada and Turkey upgraded their relations to a " strategic partnership " during the first bilateral visit by a Canadian prime minister, with nuclear cooperation topping the agenda.
阿库尤核电站项目——土耳其首座核电站——屡遭延期，俄罗斯国家原子能集团公司目前预计首台反应堆将于今年年底前实现首次自持续核链式反应。
The Akkuyu project — Turkey's first nuclear power plant — has faced repeated delays, with Rosatom now expecting the first reactor to achieve its first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction before the end of this year.
