The Hualong One power output will be 1170 MWe gross, 1090 MWe net, with a 60-year design life, and would use a combination of passive and active safety systems with a double containment. [5] It has a 177 assembly core design with an 18-month refuelling cycle. The power plant's utilisation rate is as high as 90%.
In September 2020, the plant's owner and a thermal company instigated a plan to heat all of Haiyang city via heat exchange. [13] Two months later, 700,000 square meters of housing had been heated and the project was en route for completion in its entirety in 2021.
China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) owns 70% of the project, along with Datang International Power Generation Company (20%), and State Development and Investment Corporation (10%). China Nuclear Power Engineering Company (CNPEC) is the general contractor for the project; the initial version with six AP1000s was expected to cost around CN ...
The Sanmen Nuclear Power Station (Chinese: 三门核电站) is a nuclear power station in Sanmen County, Zhejiang, China. Sanmen is the first implementation of the AP1000 pressurized water reactor (PWR) developed by Westinghouse Electric Company .
The project is intended to standardize the construction of nuclear power plants to cut down on cost and duration. According to the design, power plants could be built in as little as two years for $300 million. It is also a template, allowing for site-specific alterations with a plus or minus 20% cost predictability. [92]
