Ukraine is planning to cooperate with the French corporation Électricité de France (EDF).

Deputy Head of the Ukrainian President’s Office Rostyslav Shurma said this in a comment to journalists on the Rada TV channel, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

"We are currently working out a detailed program of cooperation with EDF. We will announce details a little bit later," Shurma said.

He stressed that for Ukraine, cooperation with France in the nuclear industry is promising, because in this country nuclear generation provides production of almost 80% of electricity. In addition, EDF is the world's largest nuclear corporation: it operates 58 power units.

As reported, NNEGC Energoatom increased electricity production by 13.1% to 86.4 billion kWh in 2021 compared to 2020.
