Brazil's energy minister Edison Lobao has unveiled plans to construct four more nuclear plants to increase its nuclear power generation capacity in the country.
Currently, Brazil has two nuclear plants in operation which includes the 657MW Angra I and 1350MW Angra II located at the Southern coast of Rio de Janeiro state.
