Frankowski, W; Wojcik, T

Approximate calculations indicate that in Poland in the years 1975-80 a shortage of coal should begin to make itself felt and that it will be necessary to bring into operation a series of nuclear power stations. In the transition period 1960-75, apart from plants of an experimental nature, the building of nuclear power stations will depend to a large degree on their ability to compete economically with other types of power sources. Using new data on the cost of power plant building and new methods of calculating the cost of production of a unit of energy, an attempt is made to define the position of nuclear power stations from the economic point of view in relation to thermal power stations based on coal, brown coal, water power, etc. (auth)
