The dome has a diameter of 37\u00a0metres, a height of 11\u00a0metres and a weight of almost 145\u00a0tonnes. It was put into place on top of the containment vessel walls at 7.10pm.<\/p>\n<p>Construction of the first of two domestically-developed 1000\u00a0MWe CPR-1000\u00a0pressurized water reactors, which will form Phase I of the Fangchenggang nuclear power plant, began in July 2010. The plant\u00a0\u2014 about 45\u00a0kilometres from the border with Vietnam\u00a0\u2014 is a project of Guangxi Fangchenggang Nuclear Power Group, a joint venture between China Guangdong Nuclear Power Co and Guangxi Investment Group. The plant is planned to eventually house six units.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of constructing Phase I is RMB 25\u00a0billion ($3.7\u00a0billion). Some 87% of the equipment to be used in the Phase I units is expected to be sourced from Chinese suppliers. The first unit is scheduled to begin operating in 2015, while the second will start up in 2016.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Taishan components<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Areva announced that the first two steam generators and the pressurizer for unit 1\u00a0of the Taishan EPR power plant had been delivered to the construction site in China\u2019s Guangdong province.<\/p>\n<p>The steam generators\u00a0\u2014 25\u00a0meters long and weighing 550\u00a0tonnes each\u00a0\u2014 were manufactured at Areva\u2019s plant at Chalon-St Marcel. They were first transported to Fos-sur-Mer in southern France, before being shipped onwards by sea to the Taishan site where they are being kept in storage awaiting installation. The two remaining generators and the reactor pressure vessel internals are in transitand due to arrive in coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Taishan 1\u00a0and 2\u00a0are the first two reactors based on Areva\u2019s EPR design to be built in China. The first two EPRs planned for the site form part of an \u20ac8\u00a0billion ($10.4\u00a0billion) contract signed by Areva and the Guangdong Nuclear Power Group (CGNPC) in November 2007. The Taishan project, 140\u00a0kilometres west of Hong Kong, is owned by the Guangdong Taishan Nuclear Power Joint Venture Company Limited, a joint venture between EDF (30%) and CGNPC.<\/p>\n<p>First concrete was poured in October 2009, and unit 1\u00a0should begin operating in 2013, with unit 2\u00a0in 2014.
