...Republic.
This dates from a few months ago, October of last year, but is still somewhat fresher than Amory Lovins statement that nuclear power is dead, dating from 1980.

31 October 2009 - Russian nuclear engineering firm Atomstroyexport, France's Areva and Toshiba-owned Westinghouse have submitted qualification documents to CEZ in a tender to build up to five nuclear reactors for the Czech power firm.
Atomstroyexport said it had submitted the documents in a consortium also comprising Czech Skoda JS and Russian Gidropress. Westinghouse has also formally submitted its qualification bid to the Czech Republic utility to complete CEZ's nuclear power plant in Temelin, which is located near the Austrian border.
I like the Austria part.
I mocked Austria's nuclear policies, for what it's worth, in a derivative way, on another website where I used to write, one run by anti-nukes, as it happens:
