China’s independent third-generation nuclear power Hualong 1, the world’s fourth unit, is connected to the grid for power generation

CNNC disclosed on the 4th that on March 4 local time, China’s independent third-generation nuclear power Hualong 1 overseas demonstration project and the world’s fourth unit – unit 3 of pakistan karachi nuclear power project were successfully connected to the grid for the first time, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent commercial operation of the unit. So far, all four units of Hualong No. 1 demonstration project at home and abroad have been connected to the grid for power generation.

One belt, one road for China and Pakistan, is to continue to deepen the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Pakistan in the new era, adhere to the goal of green and low-carbon development, jointly cope with climate change, and help achieve the goal of “carbon to carbon neutralization” in the world, and jointly build a community of human destiny of nuclear energy, which has promoted the confidence of the “one belt and one road” countries in the Hualong one.

As the national business card of China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) going global, hualong-1 is a third-generation pressurized water reactor nuclear power innovation achievement with completely independent intellectual property rights developed and designed by CNNC on the basis of more than 30 years of experience in nuclear power scientific research, design, construction, operation and management, which meets the highest international safety standards and is fully capable of mass construction, It is a major achievement in the development of China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) and the preferred scheme of China’s third-generation nuclear power for the world.

It is reported that after the completion of each unit of Hualong 1, the annual power generation capacity is expected to be nearly 10 billion kwh, which can meet the annual power demand of more than 4 million local households in Pakistan, equivalent to reducing 3.12 million tons of standard coal and 8.16 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions every year, equivalent to planting more than 70 million trees and forests, which is of great significance to optimizing Pakistan’s energy structure It is of great significance to promote the goal of global carbon peak and carbon neutrality and jointly deal with the global climate crisis.

In addition, the project construction has also driven the development of Pakistan’s economy and related industries. The local supply of equipment in Pakistan has increased significantly. During the peak period of project construction, more than 10000 jobs have been directly provided to Pakistan, and more than 40000 jobs have been indirectly created through the industrial chain, which plays an important role in promoting the local people’s livelihood and economic development in Pakistan.
