Iran designing a new nuclear power plant : reports

WSJ Market Watch

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — Iran has chosen the site for and started designing a new, 360-megawatt nuclear power plant in the country, a senior atomic-energy official said Sunday, according to reports. “We are involved in the design phase of this power station,” said Mohammad Saeedi, deputy head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, according to a Reuters report. “Gradually, the complementary design phase and its building will begin,” Saeedi said. Iran’s first nuclear power plant, with a capacity of 1,000 MW, is currently being built by Russia in the port city of Bushehr. The country has said it wants to build nuclear power plants with a total capacity of 20,000 MW by 2020, the report added.

Moscow: Iran’s Bushehr reactor seen operating by early 2009

NICOSIA — Iran and Russia have again delayed the launch of the Bushehr nuclear reactor.

Officials said a Russian nuclear delegation was scheduled to arrive in Iran in September 2008 to discuss a final timetable for the 1,000 megawatt Bushehr. They said Russia, prime contractor of Bushehr, does not envision full operations of Bushehr before 2009.

“The Iranian nation will witness electricity generation by the Bushehr power plant early next year,” Russian ambassador to Iran Alexander Sadovnikov said.
Bushehr has been more than five years behind schedule amid technical and financial mishaps. Iran said it has paid nearly all of the $1 billion charged by Moscow for the nuclear power reactor.

    The itch I have on the side of my head makes me think that Saddam Hussein didn’t just send WMDs secretly to Syria, but some went the other way…to Iran.

    You have a point. Remember Saddam sent his entire Air Force to Iran for safe keeping.

    Well, I hope that the intelligence is just a tincy-wincy bit more accurate than it was in Iraq. Again, lives are at stake here - and again, not the lives of the politicians who make the decisions.

    You seem to have a soft spot for these Islamic, 7th century pigs.
    Your observations of the world situation is obviously befuddled by that sucking sound of the UK, swirling clockwise in the toilet bowl of history.

    Not to worry my friend, we are up to our asses in muzzies, a total ZERO loss factor.

    I cannot name my source, but you nailed it at least as regards Saddam’s nuclear program.

    Rep. Pete Hoekstra fought to get thousands of pages of Saddam’s notes released to the public. Somewhere in that pile Saddam was quoted as saying he would have the last laugh on America from beyond the grave, and that was in reference to his having shipped his nuclear program across the Euphrates into Iran.
