A full-scope simulator for the Lianjiang nuclear power plant in China's Guangdong province has completed on-site acceptance testing, which will advance training preparations for the facility's two CAP1000 reactors.
The simulator is the first CAP1000 implementation using the State Power Investment Corporation's NuCON virtual simulation system.
Following delivery to the plant site, the system completed final acceptance testing in late January. A review panel of nuclear power experts evaluated the simulator's performance across multiple criteria, including simulation accuracy, real-time response, human-machine interface realism, fault simulation capabilities, and training scenarios.
The main control room features 1:1 scale replication of actual plant conditions, enabling operators to practice responses to normal operations, faults, and accident scenarios. The simulator will support both initial and continuing training for plant personnel.
Construction of Lianjiang's first two 1250 MWe reactors began in 2022, with unit 1 expected to enter operation in 2028. The site is planned to eventually accommodate six reactors.
