章 264: Chapter 258 Lightning_1

November is the season of harvest.

On November 6th, the Qingshan Base was officially completed, and the first experimental uranium reactor began trial operation.

Qingshan Base is another nuclear base constructed by New Yuan, and after a year of construction, it has officially been put into practical use, with the operation of the first experimental reactor as a symbol.

The iconic buildings of the nuclear power station, the two giant "smokestacks" (cooling towers), finally started to emit white smoke after being erected for several months, cooling down the operational reactor.

Executives from New Yuan, China Power Investment Corporation, Guangnuc, Rong 194th Institute, and other related units witnessed the start-up ceremony of the "CU-15" type experimental reactor.

CU-15, where C stands for conventional configuration, U for uranium 235 as reactor fuel, and the number 15 for an electrical power output of 150,000 kilowatts, or 150 MW.
