China’s first nuclear power steam supply project for industrial use was started in Tianwan. In the future, 400000 tons of standard coal can be burned every year

China’s first nuclear power steam supply project for industrial use today laid the first pile foundation in the Tianwan nuclear power base of China Nuclear Power Group. The project is jointly carried out by Jiangsu Nuclear Power Co., Ltd. and the petrochemical base in Xuwei new area of Jiangsu Lianyungang Port Co.Ltd(601008) city. The steam of Tianwan Nuclear Power Units 3 and 4 is used as the heat source to transport the steam to the Jiangsu Lianyungang Port Co.Ltd(601008) petrochemical industrial base for industrial production and utilization, It is expected to be put into operation for steam supply by the end of 2023. After the completion of the project, the annual steam supply will be 4.8 million tons, which can reduce the combustion of 400000 tons of standard coal every year, and the equivalent emission reduction of 1.07 million tons of carbon dioxide, 184 tons of sulfur dioxide and 263 tons of nitrogen oxides.
