Romania is going to construct a new nuclear power plant.
Government officials announced that the NPP will be finished until 2020.
Its location is expected to be near Tranaveni municipality in Mures district, which is in central Romania.
The Romanian government will announce the final location in Fall 2009.
If the Mures option is denied, the nearby Sibiu district remains the other choice.
"Both locations are considered, and they have the greatest chance to host the new NPP", Tudor Serban, from the Economy Ministry explained.
