Two Westinghouse-supplied AP-1000 nuclear reactor units have been in commercial operation at the nearby Haiyang nuclear power station since 2018 and 2019.
CNEA said cogeneration via five heat-exchange facilities at Haiyang-1 has replaced 12 coal-fired boilers used to heat households in Haiyang, a coastal city of 200,000 residents. The operation has helped reduce CO2 emissions by 180,000 tonnes, CNEA said.

Energy consumption from fossil fuels is expected to decrease due to a stated commitment to lower carbon dioxide emissions and address climate change. This reduction will inevitably increase demand for other energy sources, including nuclear – currently the fastest growing source of energy worldwide. Many countries have stated plans to build new nuclear reactors to cope with demand, including China, India, Russia, UK, and the USA. Others are investing heavily in upgrading existing facilities, including Canada and France.
