Ningde Nuclear Power Plant (
megawatt (MWe) CPR-1000 pressurized water reactors (PWRs).[2] The first reactor began operation on 18 April 2013.[3]The Ningde Nuclear Power project was approved by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) in 2007.[4]
The project is 51% funded by the Guangdong Nuclear Investment Company Ltd, with Datang International Power Generation Co and the Fujian Coal Group completing the shareholding. A total investment of 52 billion yuan (US$7.6 billion) should result in the completion of Ningde Phase I.[5]
Including the final two units of Phase II, the total cost will exceed 70 billion yuan.[4]
The four units of Phase I will generate about 30 billion kilowatt hours per year, for which the plant will charge 0.37 yuan/kW·h (11 billion yuan/year).[6]
Ningde marks a step in the development of China's domestic nuclear industry. Shu Guogang, GM of China Guangdong Nuclear Power Project said, "We built 55 percent of
Yangjiang Station."[7]
Site preparation at Ningde ran through 2007, with the first concrete for Ningde 1 poured in February 2008.[8]
Ningde 2 followed nine months later. Construction of each unit is expected to take 58 months.[9]
Ningde 1 was grid connected on 28 December 2012 and entered full commercial operation on 18 April 2013.[3][10]
Reactor data
The Ningde Nuclear Power Plant consist of 4 operational reactors, and 2 reactors planned.
