199 1 year 1 February 15 China1independently designed, built and managed nuclear power plants were successfully connected to the grid for power generation.

1 99115 Qinshan nuclear power plant1unit, the first nuclear power plant independently designed, built and managed in China, was successfully connected to the grid for power generation.

This event marks that China has entered the era of nuclear power generation, which is of great significance to China's economic construction and energy security. The background, construction process, technical characteristics, operation status and development prospect of Qinshan nuclear power plant will be introduced in detail below.

Qinshan Nuclear Power Station is located in Beilun Town, Yuyao City, Zhejiang Province, China, on the south bank of Minjiang Estuary, adjacent to the port and Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province. The project started on 1970, which is one of the first "third-line" constructions in China. China Guangdong Nuclear Power Group is responsible for the overall design and construction. 1 985 March 17, Qinshan nuclear power plant1unit started construction, which lasted more than six years, and was officially put into commercial operation on June 199 1 day+February 15.

The main equipment and technology of Qinshan nuclear power plant 1 unit are independently developed and produced in China, including pressurized water reactor and primary condenser. The installed capacity of the unit is 3 million kilowatts, and the annual power generation reaches 24.7 billion kWh, which can save 28 million tons of standard coal and reduce 74 million tons of carbon dioxide for China. The commissioning of Qinshan Nuclear Power Station marks that China's nuclear power technology has broken through foreign monopoly and achieved independent innovation.

Since its completion, Qinshan Nuclear Power Station has been steadily delivering clean electricity to Zhejiang Province and even the whole country, and has become an important demonstration base for technological innovation and personnel training in the field of nuclear power in China. Qinshan Nuclear Power Station continuously introduces advanced technology and management experience to improve the efficiency and quality of power generation while maintaining safety.

With the rapid economic development and the adjustment of energy structure in China, nuclear power is regarded as one of the important development directions in the future. At present, China's nuclear power capacity is increasing year by year, and Qinshan nuclear power station is also constantly upgrading, which has made important contributions to meeting the demand for clean energy and ensuring energy security.

The construction and operation experience of Qinshan Nuclear Power Station is regarded as a milestone in the development of nuclear power technology in China, which provides valuable practical experience for the construction of nuclear power station in China. At the same time, the successful operation of Qinshan Nuclear Power Station also marks that China's nuclear power enterprises have begun to go overseas and actively participate in global nuclear power cooperation. In the future, Qinshan Nuclear Power Station will continue to improve the efficiency and quality of power generation and promote the development of nuclear power technology in China.
