en.Wedoany.com Reported - China National Nuclear Power (CNNP) recently announced that as of March 31, 2026, the company has 27 nuclear power units in operation under its control, with a total installed capacity of 26,212 MW; it also has 18 units under construction or approved for construction, with a total installed capacity of 20,675 MW. During the same period, the company's cumulative commercial power generation for the first quarter of 2026 was 58.109 billion kWh, a year-on-year decrease of 2.73%; its cumulative grid-connected electricity was 54.925 billion kWh, a year-on-year decrease of 2.70%.

By business segment, nuclear power remains the main source of the company's power generation. In the first quarter, the cumulative power generation from nuclear power units was 47.855 billion kWh, a year-on-year decrease of 3.29%; grid-connected electricity was 44.851 billion kWh, a year-on-year decrease of 3.28%. The announcement indicates that the year-on-year decline in power generation and grid-connected electricity was mainly due to more maintenance days for nuclear power units compared to the same period last year.

In terms of installed capacity structure, CNNP's installed capacity for new energy in operation has reached 34,004.7 MW, including 10,723.4 MW from wind power and 23,281.3 MW from photovoltaic (PV) power. Additionally, it controls independent energy storage power stations with a capacity of 1,851 MW. The installed capacity of new energy under construction is 7,873.4 MW, including 2,594.9 MW from wind power and 5,278.5 MW from PV power. Based on the current structure, the company has formed a parallel installed capacity system of "nuclear power + wind power + photovoltaic power + energy storage," with the scale of new energy installed capacity continuing to expand.

Judging from the quarterly operational data and installed capacity distribution, CNNP currently maintains a foundational base of 27 nuclear power units in operation while continuously advancing the construction of new energy and energy storage projects. The data disclosed this time also reflects that the company's power generation performance in the first quarter was affected by maintenance factors, but capacity expansion is still ongoing.
