China. Rosatom’s mechanical engineering division shipped three steam generators for Xudabao Unit 4 under construction in China. Weighing a total of 1,000 tonnes, the equipment will be delivered to the construction site by road, river and sea. The first batch of equipment for this power unit – a VVER-1200 reactor pressure vessel and a steam generator – was shipped from the factory in mid-August 2024. The production facilities of the mechanical engineering division are now busy manufacturing other key systems and equipment for the Xudabao NPP, including a pressurizer, primary coolant pipes, reactor coolant pumps, etc. According to the contracts signed by the parties, Rosatom designs and supplies core equipment for the ‘nuclear islands’ of Xudabao Units 3 and 4 with VVER-1200 reactors and provides construction and commissioning supervision services.
