World's first commercial onshore small reactor starts NI installation in S China

CGTN, 04 Dec 2022
The world's first commercial onshore small modular reactor (SMR) project "Linglong-1" started the installation of its nuclear island (NI) on November 30 in Changjiang Li Autonomous County, south China's Hainan Province.

This multi-purpose pressurized water reactor (PWR) is cheaper and quicker to build and deploy with a higher safety level. It can be used in power supply, seawater desalination, spot heating and industrial heating.

The annual energy output of "Linglong-1" is expected to hit one billion kilowatt-hours after 58 months of construction.
