en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 2, the China-Russia nuclear energy cooperation project achieved its latest milestone—Unit 3 of the Liaoning Xudapu Nuclear Power Plant, invested and controlled by China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) subsidiary China Nuclear Power (stock code: 601985), successfully completed the hot functional test (referred to as "hot test"), laying a solid foundation for subsequent fuel loading, grid connection, and power generation.
The hot test is a comprehensive operational verification conducted under conditions closest to actual operating conditions, aimed at fully validating the reliability of nuclear island and conventional island equipment and systems under hot conditions before fuel loading, ensuring that relevant parameters meet design requirements.
The Xudapu Nuclear Power Plant project plans to build six million-kilowatt-class pressurized water reactor nuclear power units, with a single planning and phased construction approach, a total installed capacity exceeding 7.6 million kilowatts, and a total investment of 140 billion yuan. Once fully completed, the project will provide nearly 54 billion kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually, save 19.2 million tons of standard coal per year, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 56.7 million tons annually, equivalent to the annual absorption capacity of 360,000 hectares of forest. The construction of this project injects strong momentum into Liaoning Province's efforts to build an integrated energy base combining wind, solar, thermal, nuclear, and storage.
