Nuclearelectrica, operator of Romania’s sole nuclear power plant in Cernavoda, forecasts a net profit of 131.9 million lei (EUR30.4 million) in 2013, well above RON5.6 million reported in the previous year.
The company expects revenues will rise 1.1% to RON2.2 billion in 2013, while costs are estimated at RON2 billion, unchanged on the year.
Nuclearelectrica has scheduled total investments worth RON568.5 million this year, up from RON501.6 million in 2012.
Nucleareletrica is majority owned by the Economy Ministry. The company operates two 700-megawatt reactors in Cernavoda, covering around 20% of Romania’s energy consumption.
Last month, the economy ministry announced plans to sell a 10% stake in Nuclearelectrica by the end of May.
