Eletronuclear and EDF sign MoU
Brazil ’ s Eletronuclear and France ’ s EDF signed a fresh Memorandum of Understanding ( MoU ) valid for five years promoting mutual cooperation in the development of nuclear energy projects . It is a renewal of a previous cooperation agreement from 2018 , but with expanded scope and includes small modular reactors , hydrogen generation , and more research and development . Brazil has been considering nuclear expansion with a siting study for possible new plants . The country has historically relied on hydro for as much as 80 % of its electricity , but changes in rainfall patterns produced droughts that reduced this to 65 % by 2018 . The country only has one nuclear power plant , Angra , which produces about 3 % of Brazilian power from two reactors that have operated since 1982 and 2000 . The construction of a third reactor at Angra is expected to get underway again after a restructuring of the stalled project .
