en.Wedoany.com Reported - Last night (the 10th), the first concrete pouring for the nuclear island of Unit 4 at the CGN Guangdong Taipingling Nuclear Power Plant, the first "Hualong One" nuclear power project in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, officially commenced. This marks another key milestone following the commissioning of Unit 1 and the fuel loading of Unit 2 at the same project, signifying that the second phase of the Taipingling Nuclear Power Plant has entered the full-scale construction stage.

The newly commenced Unit 4 of the Taipingling Nuclear Power Plant adopts China's "Hualong One" technology, a third-generation nuclear power technology with completely independent intellectual property rights. With a rated power of 1,209 megawatts per unit, its technological maturity and level of independent controllability rank among the highest globally.

It is understood that the Taipingling Nuclear Power Project is planned to have six "Hualong One" nuclear power units, constructed in three phases. Once all units are completed and put into operation, they will be able to supply approximately 55 billion kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually, continuously delivering stable, green, and low-carbon clean energy to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, strongly supporting the optimization of the regional energy structure and high-quality green and low-carbon development.
