Ukraine's spent fuel exports to Russia to cost more

      RBC, 24.01.2008, Kiev 19:56:00.Russia has proposed raising the tariff for Ukraine's exports of spent nuclear fuel for 2008 by 18 percent from the previous year's figure, a Ukrainian government source told journalists, adding that Ukraine was opposed to the increase.

      If the countries fail to reach a compromise on the cost of services, Ukrainian nuclear power plants will be forced to cut back nuclear fuel exports to Russia 2.5 times from target levels in 2008. It was expected that six shipments of spent nuclear fuel would be made in 2008, the same as a year earlier.

      It cost $372 to ship a kilogram of spent fuel in 2002. The price went up to $520 in 2006, and could reach $730 in 2008.
