The world’s first 1,400-MW Advanced Pressurized Reactor (APR1400), a South Korean Generation III design, has now been connected to the grid.
Nearly eight years since construction kicked off in October 2008—despite years of delays posed by delivery delays and a crippling documentation scandal that required cabling replacements—Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power Co. (KHNP) put Shin Kori 3 (Figure 2) online on January 15. A twin reactor at Shin Kori 4 is expected to start up in 2017.
Meanwhile, two more APR1400s are under construction at Shin Hanul (Units 1 and 2) and should come online between April 2017 and February 2018.
The reactor design won the Korean Institute of Nuclear Safety’s design certification in May 2003. After construction began on the Shin Kori reactors, KHNP, which is spearheading efforts to export the design, struck a $20 billion deal with the United Arab Emirates for four APR1400s.
Those reactors are already under construction at Barakah. All are scheduled to be in operation by 2020. The first is reportedly more than 75% complete and is expected to come online in 2017.
