Westinghouse submits bid for Czech reactor build
CEZ announced the bidding process in August to build two new nuclear reactors at the plant. The Temelin plantÂ’s current two reactors were built by a Russian company, but Westinghouse provided instrumentation and controls and original fuel, said Westinghouse spokesman Scott Shaw.

Westinghouse is based in Cranberry, north of Pittsburgh. It is a group company of Toshiba Corp., Tokyo.
