The No.1 high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) of Shidao Bay nuclear power plant, which is fully independently developed by China, achieved criticality in east China's Shandong Province on Sunday.

This is another milestone the nuclear power plant made in this year after completing cold and hot functional tests for twin reactors, as well as its first fuel loading.

Its unit is expected to start generating power within this year.

With an installed capacity of 200,000 kilowatts, the HTGR of Shidao Bay nuclear power plant under China Huaneng Group started the construction at the end of 2012. It is the first Pebble Bed Modular HTGR with the fourth-generation advanced nuclear power system features in the world.

"We've mastered a series of global and industrial bottleneck key technologies, and verified their engineering transformation. Features like the inherent safety of HTGR will hopefully expand nuclear power from coastal areas to inland regions," said Wang Wenzong, vice president of the China Huaneng Group Co., Ltd.

由中国完全自主研发的石岛湾核电站一号高温气冷堆（HTGR）于周日在中国东部山东省达到临界状态。

这是今年核电站完成双反应堆冷热功能试验以及首次装料后取得的又一个里程碑。

其机组有望在今年内开始发电。

中国华能集团石岛湾核电站HTGR装机容量20万千瓦，于2012年底开工建设，是世界上第一台具有第四代先进核电系统特点的球床模块化HTGR .

“我们掌握了一系列全球和行业瓶颈关键技术，并验证了它们的工程转化。HTGR 的固有安全性等特性有望将核电从沿海地区扩展到内陆地区，”中国华能集团有限公司副总裁王文宗说。
