The first batch of concrete has been poured for the nuclear island of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor that forms part of the initial phase of the Jiangsu Xuwei Nuclear Heating and Power Plant, China National Nuclear Corporation has announced.
 

The loading of fuel assemblies into the core of unit 2 at the San'ao nuclear power plant in China's Zhejiang province has been completed ahead of its start up. The unit is the second of six HPR1000s (Hualong Ones) planned at the site.
 

The first safety-related concrete has been poured for the reactor building of unit 5 at the Haiyang nuclear power plant. It is the fifth of six large pressurised water reactors planned for the site in China's Shandong province.
 

Tests that simulate the temperatures and pressures which the reactor systems will be subjected to during normal operation are reportedly taking place at the ACP100 small modular reactor demonstration project, under construction at the Changjiang site on China's island province of Hainan.
 

Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant's unit 7 has been successfully connected to the grid, China National Nuclear Corporation has announced.
 

The concreting of the inner containment dome has been completed at unit 3 of the Zhangzhou nuclear power plant in China's Fujian province, while concrete pours have also been completed at units 1 and 2 of the Zhaoyuan plant in Shandong province.
 

The new Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant unit 7 has achieved a self-sustaining controlled nuclear chain reaction and is at its minimum controllable power level.
 

First concrete was poured for the nuclear island of Bailong Nuclear Power Plant's unit 2 at 18:27 on Sunday 27 September.
 

China General Nuclear says the 250,000-ton-metre lifting torque ring-rail crane rolled off the production line last month to support the construction of Hualong One 2.0 nuclear power plants.
