SHENZHEN, Aug. 30 (Xinhua) — China's third-generation Hualong-1 nuclear reactor has 41 units in operation or under construction, making it the world leader among such reactors, the China General Nuclear Power Corporation said Friday in Shenzhen, south China's Guangdong Province.
Hualong-1 is a completely self-developed third-generation nuclear technology of China, which has been found compliant with the European Operating Authority (EUR) requirements and has passed the General Design Assessment (GDA) conducted by the UK.
The technology has demonstrated excellent performance characteristics, and seven power units have already been connected to grids around the world, the corporation reported.
Let us recall that Hualong-1 generates more than 10 billion kWh of electricity per year, which can meet the annual production and household electricity needs of 1 million people in average developed countries. This is equivalent to reducing standard coal consumption by 3.12 million tons per year and carbon dioxide emissions by 8.16 million tons per year. -0-
