Tianwan nuclear plant unit 7, operated by China Nuclear Power Investment
Holdings under CNNC, synchronized to the grid for the first time on Oct. 8 and
delivered its first power; it is expected to enter commercial service later this
year. The Tianwan site plans eight units; units 1–6 have produced over 550 bln
kWh. When all eight units are online, installed capacity will exceed 9,000 MW,
annual generation will top 70 bln kWh and CO2 emissions will be cut by about
57.4 mln tons a year.
