Move over, sci-fi movies—China just staged a real-life engineering marvel! 🇨🇳 The colossal steel dome for Unit 3 at Haiyang Nuclear Power Plant in Shandong Province was successfully hoisted into place this week, marking a major milestone in the plant’s expansion. 🏗️ With the main structure now complete, the unit is on track to join Unit 4 in full operation by 2027.
Once all four reactors are online, the plant will generate a whopping 40 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually—enough to power half of Shandong’s 100 million+ residents! 💡 This leap forward supports China’s push to reduce reliance on coal and cut carbon emissions, aligning with global climate goals.
The Haiyang project is part of a broader clean energy strategy, blending innovation with sustainability. Think of it as the Avengers of power plants—except instead of superheroes, it’s got reactors working round-the-clock to keep lights on and air clean. 🌿✨
