On 18th January, 2012, a delegation of the joint venture company JSC NIAEP – JSC Atomstroyexport (JSC ASE), headed by Valery Limarenko, director of JSC NIAEP and acting president of JSC ASE, participated in a meeting, dedicated to Tianwan NPP 3&4 Project (TNPP, People’s Republic of China).M. Xue-Jian, general director of Jiangsu Nuclear Power Corporation, represented the Customer at the meeting, held in Lianyungang City (People’s Republic of China). Before the meeting the Russian specialists visited the first two power units of Taiwan NPP (power units N 1 and 2, conventional island, main control room) and the site for power units N 3 and 4. During the meeting a number of questions, related to further cooperation, were discussed, including the possibility to supplement the valid contract with generation of models on the Multi-D technology basis, and creation of one IT-environment which will allow collaborating on engineering works via compatible software and a single server platform. The participants of the meeting also studied in detail the idea of creating a Procurement – Purchase system in the IT environment and using an electronic catalogue (database). Commenting on the outcome of the meeting, Valery Limarenko said, “I highly estimate the work of the Chinese colleagues, they are truly professional. We understood each other at once, that’s why, I have no doubt about fair prospects of our collaboration on the Tianwan NPP 3&4 project”.

TNPP is the biggest project in economic cooperation between People’s Republic of China and Russian Federation. In accordance with the Russian – Chinese intergovernmental agreement, signed in 1992, JSC ASE was in charge of Tianwan NPP 1&2 construction project. In 2007 the first two power units of TNPP (2x1060 MW) were handed over to the Customer (JNPC), and the power plant was commissioned, the warranty period proving its safe and reliable performance. On 23rd November 2010 JSC Atomstroyexport and the Chinese companies JNPC, CNPE and CNEIC signed the general contract for construction of Tianwan NPP second phase (power units 3&4, 1060 MW per unit). In August 2011 China and Russia confirmed commencement of the contract.
