Presidents Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping launched the construction of new power units at the Tianwan & Xudapu Nuclear Power Plants.
Vladimir Putin: Russia & China have achieved great success in strengthening multidimensional cooperation & mutual trust.
Russian and Chinese specialists are working on this flagship joint project which is truly a milestone. They are building powerful, modern Russian-designed nuclear reactors that meet all safety and environmental standards. It is planned that they will start operating as soon as in 2026–2028, which, as President Xi just said, will be a solid contribution to China’s energy security. Chinese consumers will have access to larger volumes of inexpensive and clean electric power.
I am convinced that Russia and China will have many more ambitious and successful projects together. We are ready to develop our cooperation in the construction of nuclear power plants, and innovative partnership in the development and implementation of low-carbon & other technology.
