HARBIN, Aug 19, 2002 (Xinhua via COMTEX) -- A China-built nuclear
generator with a 650,000 kW capacity has begun operating at the Qinshan
Nuclear Power Plant in east China's Zhejiang Province.
Produced by the Harbin power station company, the unit is the first of
its kind designed and made by China especially for the second phase
project of the plant.
Construction on the second phase of the project at Qinshan began on June
2, 1996, with an investment of 14.8 billion yuan (1.8 billion US
dollars).
Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant was the first nuclear power plant built with
China's own technology.
