The Fuqing Nuclear Power Plant (simplified Chinese: 福清核电站; traditional Chinese: 福清核電站; pinyin: Fúqīng hé diàn zhàn) is a nuclear power plant in Fuqing, Fujian Province, PRC. The plant is on the coast at the foot of Qiwei Mountain, near Qianxue Village, Sanshan Town.[2] The station will have six 1,000 megawatt (MW) CPR-1000 pressurized water reactors (PWRs).[3] The CPR-1000 is an advanced PWR design developed by China from the Areva-designed PWRs at the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant.[4]
The plant will be jointly constructed and operated by China National Nuclear Corporation (51%), China Huadian Corp. (39%) and the Fujian Investment & Development Co Ltd. (10%). The cost of the plant will be about 100 billion yuan (US$14.7 billion).[4]
Construction of the first unit began on 21 November 2008, and is expected to take 5 years.[3] Vice Premier Li Keqiang attended the inauguration ceremony.[4] First concrete for Unit 2 was poured on 17 June 2009 — three months ahead of schedule.[5] First concrete for Unit 3 was poured on 31 December 2010. Preliminary work for the other three units is underway.
