¡¡¡¡China National Nuclear Corporation £¨CNNC£©£¬ the nation's largest reactor builder£¬ intends to use its own technology to build two 650-megawatt reactors and two 1£¬000-megawatt reactors at its Qinshan plant£¬ which will more than double its generation capacity.
¡¡¡¡Upon completion of both projects£¬ the installed capacity of the Qinshan nuclear power plant will be set to rise to 6£¬200 megawatts from the current 2£¬900 megawatts generated by five running reactors£¬ a CNNC news centre official said.
¡¡¡¡Total investment for the planned expansion projects is expected to reach US$4.33 billion£¬ based on construction costs provided by CNNC.
¡¡¡¡For the two 650-megawatt reactors£¬ it will cost US$1£¬330 for each kilowatt of added capacity. The 1£¬000-megawatt reactors are US$30 less for each kilowatt to build because of the technology that the two gigawatt reactors will use£¬ said company sources.
¡¡¡¡The two 650-megawatt reactors have already won final central government approval£¬ and will be installed at the second phase project of the Qinshan plant in Zhejiang Province£¬ which has already been operating two Chinese-designed 600-megawatt reactors£¬ using technology known as the China Nuclear Power £¨CNP£© 600£¬ its own technology.
¡¡¡¡¡°Infrastructure for the two reactors is scheduled to commence construction next March£¬ and the expansion project is expected to last at least five or six years£¬¡± Li said.
¡¡¡¡The remaining two planned 1-gigawatt reactors will go to Fangjiashan£¬ 650 metres away from the Qinshan phase I project£¬ which already has one 300-megawatt reactor in operation.
