Drive my country’s nuclear power to go out, Hualong No. 1 has become my country’s new business card


Nuclear power is a technology-intensive high-tech strategic industry and an important manifestation of the country’s comprehensive strength and core competitiveness.

The construction of the Hualong No. 1 demonstration project can not only drive the development of the nuclear power industry chain, but also drive the development of a large number of related technology industries, promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and provide a strong impetus for the improvement of my country’s equipment manufacturing and technological independent innovation capabilities.

Hualong No. 1 drives the upgrading of high-end equipment manufacturing industry

During the construction of the Hualong No. 1 demonstration project, the R&D team joined forces with 17 universities, scientific research institutions, 58 state-owned enterprises, and more than 140 private enterprises, driving thousands of enterprises in the upstream and downstream industrial chains, and solved a series of “stuck necks”. ” problem, jointly broke through the localization of 411 sets of core equipment, completed the development of independent advanced models and independent equipment manufacturing, and the localization rate of the first equipment of Hualong No. 1 reached 88%.

Xing Ji, chief designer of China National Nuclear Corporation Hualong No. 1:For the first stack of Hualong No. 1, each unit includes more than 60,000 sets of equipment. There are more than 5,300 suppliers participating in the whole work. It is precisely because there is a strong Chinese manufacturing industry that supports Hualong. With independent research and development, we can realize the smooth application of Hualong’s independent technology in engineering.

In the process of R&D and construction of Hualong No. 1, the R&D team has conquered a number of key technologies, which has driven the transformation and upgrading of the domestic high-end equipment manufacturing industry, and has formed a series of technical specifications for the design, construction, materials, and welding of the third-generation nuclear power plant, which has greatly improved Drive the development of domestic equipment manufacturing and high-tech industries, enhance the product capabilities of various industries in the entire equipment supply industry chain, and promote the development of the industrial structure.

At the same time, the operating life of Hualong No. 1 unit is 60 years. In the process, it will bring a variety of operation and maintenance facilities and the demand for large-scale spare parts, making the improvement of product capabilities of various industries in the domestic industrial chain a long-term process to create sustainable economic benefits.

Accelerate the pace of mass construction and “going out”

As a third-generation nuclear power technology independently researched and developed by my country and with completely independent intellectual property rights, Hualong No. 1 has also become a new “business card” of my country.

Through the construction of the Hualong No. 1 demonstration project, a complete set of Hualong No. 1 standard system has been formed, which will not only effectively enhance the discourse power of China’s nuclear power technology in the world, but also support the continuous acceleration of batch construction and “going out” of Hualong No. 1. pace.

Since 2016, Hualong No. 1 has formed more than 2,000 standards, completed 35 key technical studies, formed a batch of English-language standards, and released my country’s first ISO nuclear power international standard. At present, Hualong No. 1 has formed a complete and independent model standard system, covering the entire life cycle of nuclear power plants, including early stage, design, equipment, construction, and commissioning. At present, the domestic Hualong No. 1 Zhangzhou unit and Hainan unit are all under construction in an orderly manner.

Xing Ji, chief designer of China National Nuclear Corporation Hualong No. 1:At present, there are 8 units under construction in China. Such a small batch of work, especially to promote the optimization and improvement on the basis of the first pile, has also laid a very good foundation for the construction of Hualong No. 1 in larger batches in the future.

In addition, the export of Hualong No. 1 has achieved remarkable results in “going out”. The first overseas K2 unit in Karachi, Pakistan, of Hualong No. 1 was put into commercial operation in May last year. At present, Pakistan’s second Hualong No. 1 unit has also been connected to the grid and will be put into commercial operation soon.

It is understood that my country has officially signed a contract for the design, procurement and construction of the Hualong No. 1 project with Argentina. In addition, many countries and regions along the “Belt and Road” have paid great attention to Hualong One, which provides an important choice for countries with nuclear power development plans in the world.
