 companies will now cooperate in designing, building and operating the proposed plant.
EVN submitted six criteria which are to be addressed by the MoU. These include the supply of reactors using the latest technology and having the highest safety; a stable supply of nuclear fuel; and support for the disposal of radioactive waste. In addition, JINED must support Vietnam in developing a nuclear energy industry, training workers and providing financial support.
The requirements are in line with a May 2008 cooperation agreement, under which Japan agreed to help Vietnam prepare and plan for the introduction of nuclear energy, educate experts in nuclear power and help the country formulate nuclear safety regulations.
JINED was established in October 2010, with the prime purpose of "proposal and research activities for nuclear power plant project orders in emerging countries." Headquartered in Tokyo, JINED is three-quarters owned by nine electric power companies, while three nuclear engineering companies each hold a 5% stake, with the remaining 10% held by Innovation Network of Japan - a joint venture of government and industry.
The move to establish the consortium was seen as a reaction to South Korea's success in exporting to the United Arab Emirates and directed towards winning new nuclear contracts with the emerging nuclear countries of south-east Asia.
Vietnam's first nuclear power plant will be supplied by Russia's AtomStroyExport at Phuoc Dinh, also in Ninh Thuan province, after an October 2010 agreement. Construction of the first two units at Phouc Dinh is scheduled to start in 2014, with the first reactor scheduled to be commissioned by 2020 and the second in 2021.
Last week a memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed between Vietnam's ministry of education and training and Russian state nuclear company Rosatom aimed at establishing an information centre for nuclear energy at Hanoi Polytechnic University.
The agreement was signed by Sergei Novikov, director of Rosatom's communications department, and Bui Van Ha, Vietnam's deputy minister of education and training.
Rosatom said that the MoU is part of continued cooperation between Russian and Vietnam to create favourable public opinion about nuclear energy in Vietnam, as well as ensuring the country's future nuclear industry has sufficient qualified personnel.Warning:

Endothelium-derived nitric oxide plays a major role in the regulation of vascular tone and in the maintenance of vascular homeostasis. Endothelial dysfunction with impaired nitric oxide biosynthesis and decreased bioavailability has been implicated in insulin resistance syndrome and Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. Nitric oxide is synthesised by nitric oxide synthase. Asymmetric dimethylarginine is a major endogenous nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. Increased circulating asymmetric dimethylarginine was initially found in patients with chronic renal failure and subsequently many other disease states. Increased asymmetric dimethylarginine plasma concentrations could contribute to the development of insulin resistance and coronary heart disease. Understanding of the pathophysiological role of asymmetric dimethylarginine could lead to novel therapies in the prevention of arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease.

Primorye Vladivostok lifted an historic hat trick of European club titles this afternoon in Amiens, France defeating local hosts BC Chambly Oise 4-1 and in doing so joined Denmark’s Gentofte BK as the only club in the tournaments history to win 3 in a row.
Vladivostok were overwhelming favourites coming into the tournament and brushed all opponents aside in the group stages. After coming up against the stiff resistance of AIX Universite in the semi-final the Russian champions gave a defiant display of world class badminton in today’s final against Chambly.
Vladimir Ivanov, the European bronze medallist, got the Russians off to a perfect started controlling the first men’s singles from start to finish against Thomas Rouxel. The Frenchman made a good start in each of the games but was soon overcome by the power and diversity of Ivanov’s game as the Russian won 21-9 21-19.
In a must win game for the hosts, Scotland’s Kirsty Gilmour gave Chambly an early scare losing the opening game to Olga Golovanova after a traditional slow start by the Scot. Golovanova had a healthy 17-10 lead in the opening game before Gilmour found her grove and almost snatched the opener going down 21-19.
The writing was on the wall for Golavanova and just as she did at Spanish international one month ago Gilmour came powering back to take the second and deciding set to leave Chambly with a glimmer of hope going into the remainder of the matches.
“As usual I got off to a terrible start and felt awful on the court. But midway through the opening set I kick started my game and even though I still lost the first I felt good going into the second game after a good run of points.” Said the Scot after her victory.
The European men’s doubles champions were next on court for the reigning champions and Ivanov followed up his singles win with a well-crafted victory alongside Ivan Sozonov over Robert Mateusiak and Bastian Kersaudy.
“We were not at our very best today as we played a lot of matches this week. But I am still happy to win the point for the team as we want to win three in a row for our club in this tournament” said Sozonov after their doubles win.
2012 Olympic bronze medallist Nina Vislova was next on court alongside her Chinese partner Zhang Yeqi. The Russians, as expected, blew away the challenge of Danckers and Pancasari leaving the Russians within one match of retaining their title.
Enter one of the queens of European badminton over the past decade and in a somewhat fitting tribute to her world class talents it fell to Valeria Sorokina and partner Ivan Sozonov to lift the title for Vladivostok against the crack Chambly pairing of Matuesiak and Gilmour.
Sorokina was outstanding and dictated much of the play and the Chambly pair were left feeding on crumbs for much of the match.
The Russians took the mixed doubles in two games and with it the fourth points needed from a seven match schedule to lift the title for the third year running.
After a two year spell in the France next year’s edition of the European Club Championships will also be in France before moving to Lublin in Poland.
