BEIJING, Sept. 27, 2024 — China National Nuclear Power (CNNP) unveiled its inaugural technical service brand, “I-Nuclear,” on Wednesday. The company aims to provide comprehensive and multifaceted technical support for the safe and efficient operation of nuclear power plants.
Building upon the eight technical service offerings introduced in 2017, “I-Nuclear” represents CNNP’s ongoing commitment to refining its core capabilities in nuclear power technology services. The brand seeks to address the diverse requirements of the evolving nuclear power market.
Positioned as a premier one-stop nuclear power technology service provider, “I-Nuclear” encompasses eight key areas within nuclear power projects: Production preparation (i-Prepare), nuclear commissioning (i-Commission), operational support (i-Support), major overhauls (i-Outage), specialized maintenance (i-Maintain), professional training (i-Train), technical support (i-Tech), and nuclear informatization (i-Informatization), according to CNNP.
“The eight products above make up the CNNP’s new ‘I-Nuclear’ brand. They represent the culmination of the CNNP’s 260 reactor years of operational experience, serve as a significant symbol of the development of new productive forces, and reflect the successful practice of China’s nuclear safety culture,” stated Lu Tiezhong, chairman of the CNNP, in a video address delivered at the brand launch ceremony on Wednesday.
“It is hoped that this platform will facilitate the sharing of nuclear power experiences, enhance the safety and operational standards of nuclear power, and create even more outstanding operational achievements in the nuclear sector,” Lu added.
“As the pioneer, main force, and leader of China’s nuclear power industry, the CNNP is committed to promoting the safe and innovative development of nuclear energy, continuously exploring and improving its core capabilities in nuclear power technology services,” he emphasized.
The Wednesday launch ceremony was held in Shanghai in conjunction with CNNP’s cultural festival. The event also marked the announcement of the establishment of a new CNNP cultural creativity and brand studio.
“Wisdom, green, health, and safety are the keywords of future technology and industrial development, which are closely linked to the CNNP’s efforts,” said Fang Xin, former deputy secretary of the Party Leadership Group of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), who graced the ceremony as a guest.
Fang lauded the release of “I-Nuclear” as a significant milestone in CNNP’s development. “The Chinese nuclear industry has always been at the forefront of technological innovation as a national strategic scientific force,” she remarked at the ceremony. “We believe that through the hard work and dedication of all those involved in nuclear power, the future of China’s nuclear energy will be even more brilliant.”
