The Zhangzhou Nuclear Power Plant (
Province, in southeast China
.
The plant is owned by CNNC Guodian Zhangzhou Energy Co. Ltd., established in November 2011, which is owned by China National Nuclear Corporation (51%) and China Guodian Corporation (49%).
CNNC originally planned to have AP1000 light water reactors, but later changed plans to the Hualong One design.[1]
China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued construction licenses for Zhangzhou units 1 and 2 on 9 October 2019, and first concrete for Unit 1 was poured one week later, on 16 October.[2]
China's State Council approved the construction of two Hualong One units as Phase II on 14 September 2022.[3]
