  [UI News Briefing 96/44]

           (for the period 30 October - 5 November 1996)


           [NB96.44-8] Brazil's nuclear energy sector is to be
           reoorganised early next year when the country's
           electricity system is privatised. Ownership of the
           country's only nuclear power station, Angra, is to be
           transferred from utility Furnas Centrais Electricas
           to architect-engineer Nuclen. Apart from the Angra
           units - unit 1 is operational, and completion of unit
           2 is expected in 1999 - Furnas' other assets are
           mainly hydro, and the reorganisation will enable
           Furnas to be privatised. Nuclen is owned by the
           Brazilian government electricity board, Eletrobras
           (75%) and Siemens AG (25%), and will head a project
           to design a standardised advanced PWR to be built
           after the planned Angra-3. (Nucleonics Week, 31
           October, p2)
