Turkey is planning
to start operating two nuclear power plants until 2023. Plans for developing a
third power plant is already underway with a Chinese – American consortium.
Nuclear Industry Association of Turkey recently organized a business
matchmaking forum in partnership with Kaan Şekerciler Business Communication
Services that brought main contractors of the nuclear power plant
projects in Turkey together with the manufacturers which are planning to
involve in the construction of these mega-projects.
The event
which has been held between 8 – 9 March
2017 in Pullmann Airport Convention
Center in Istanbul, Turkey under the patronage of the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Energy and
Natural Resources allowed 98 exhibiting companies to set more than 290 pre-scheduled
appointments with the licensees of the Turkish NPP projects and major
contractors from all tiers of the supply chain.
Nuclear Trade Matchmaking Forum which is organized for the third
time in 2017 as part of the International
Nuclear Power Plants Summit (INPPS)
saw an influx of Turkish manufacturers that are looking for international
partners for joint-ventures and technology transfers.
Apart from
industry giants like Rosatom, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries or Siemens
the event also hosted a number of small to medium enterprises in nuclear
industry which are looking for opportunities in the 75-billion-dollar market
that is enabled by the three Turkish NPP projects.
Reflecting
the ever-growing interest of Turkish SMEs in nuclear industry, Ankara Chamber
of Commerce signed an MOU with Russian SOJUZATOMSTROJ, ROSATOM-CICE&T
and Czech Power Industry Association for cooperation on training for
nuclear manufacturing.
Commenting
on the success of the summit Mr. Koray Tuncer -General Secretary of the Nuclear Industry Association of Turkey
stated: “In spite of the political volatility in Turkey’s borders and security
concerns of many international attendees we were able to increase our attendee
number 10% and hosted nuclear industry delegations from France, UK and Germany.
We believe our matchmaking programme has quite an effect on this success.”
