Turkey's energy minister said government's determination to build another plant in Sinop similar to the one planned in Mersin. He said the planned nuclear reactors to be built by Russia would have a capacity equal to 10-11 percent of Turkey's current electricity generation. He said it would go down to 5 percent by 2020 due to rising consumption and voiced the need for a second plant.

Earlier this year, Turkey had also lauched talks with South Korea's state-controlled utility KEPCO for another planned plant.

Prior to talks, KEPCO had said it was in talks with Turkey to sell APR1400 (Advanced Power Reactor 1400), pressurized water reactor with a thermal output of 4000 megawatts.
