The reactor vessel of the fourth power unit was installed in its design position at the construction site of the Xudapu NPP (in northeastern China), which is being built under the supervision of the Engineering Division of Rosatom State Corporation.
According to the corporation's press service, nuclear scientists had previously installed a core catcher, raised the dome on the building, and installed a polar crane.
According to Alexey Bannik, Vice President of Atomstroyexport JSC, the Xudapu NPP project is a prime example of cooperation between Russia and China in the field of high technology.
Our partnership spans more than a decade, and power units built according to the Russian design have demonstrated many years of efficient and accident-free operation.
