PRAGUE, May 7 (Reuters) - Czech power utility CEZ CEZP.PR will appeal a court injunction preventing it from signing an $18 billion deal with Korea's KHNP to build two new nuclear reactors, CEZ's Chief Executive Daniel Benes said on Wednesday.
Benes told reporters CEZ was continuing with the project despite the legal challenge by losing bidder EDF of France, and will seek damages caused by delays, he said.
