Founded in Shanghai in 1953, East China Electric Power Design Institute Co., Ltd. of China Power Engineering Consulting Group (abbreviation as ECEPDI）is one of the top 100 companies of China Survey and design with the certification of the national quality / environment / occupational health and safety management system. ECEPDI is a comprehensive and multifunctional engineering company which has a comprehensive engineering design qualification and class-A engineering survey qualification certificate, and can undertake the business of engineering design, general contracting, project management, related technical service of various industries and project scales; ECEPDI can also undertake the business of geotechnical engineering, hydrogeological survey and engineering survey of various construction projects without project scale limitation.
ECEPDI has strong technical capability and complete professional team, and adheres to the development of high-tech. In many design technology, ECEPDI is in the leading position in China， such as nuclear power plant conventional island of different capacity & technical rout, Subcritical / Supercritical / Ultra-supercritical coal-fired power generation, clean coal power generation, natural gas power generation, UHV / UHV AC / DC transmission and substation, and design technology of large span tower, multi circuit compact line of the same tower, underground substation, underground pipe gallery, etc.. ECEPDI also made remarkable achievements in FGD, DeNox, Carbon Capture System, desalination of seawater, super large cooling tower, large direct air cooling power generation, waste to power generation, biomass power generation, wind power generation, solar power generation, geothermal power generation and heat recovery power generation technology. ECEPDI has created many No.1 in the history of China's power construction.
ECEPDI has always adhered to the service attitude of "carefully designed and high-quality service" and the management concept of "honesty first, quality first", and provided the integrated service of the whole process and life cycle of the project construction for all walks of life of the society, and made greater contribution to energy construction and social development.
The Fourth HPR1000 Unit in the World Connected to Grid for Power Generation, with CI Designed by ECEPDI
On March 4, 2022 local time, good news came again from Karachi K2K3 Nuclear Power Project in Pakistan: the fourth HPR1000 unit in the world — Karachi Unit 3 in Pakistan was successfully connected to the power grid for the first time, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent commercial operation of the unit. By now, all four HPR1000 units included in domestic and overseas demonstration projects with ECEPDI undertaking the CI and BOP design have been connected to grid for power generation.
Each HPR1000 unit is expected to generate 10 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, able to meet the annual electricity demand of more than 4 million local households, equivalent to reducing 3.12 million tons of standard coal and 8.16 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually. It is of great significance in optimizing the energy structure in Pakistan, realizing the global goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, and jointly coping with the global climate crisis. The construction of the project has also boosted the development of relevant industries in Pakistan, created more than 10,000 jobs for Pakistan, and promoted the livelihood of local people and economic development of Pakistan.
As a national name card of China's nuclear power going global, HPR1000 is a G3 PWR reactor nuclear power innovation achievement developed and designed by China with completely independent intellectual property rights, meeting the highest international safety standards, and is an optimal scheme of G3 nuclear power contributed by China to the world.
Since 1991, ECEPDI has cooperated with CNNC in the design, operation and maintenance of a number of overseas nuclear power projects, and completed the CI and BOP design for Units C1-C4 of Chashma Nuclear Power Plant and K2K3 Unit of Karachi Nuclear Power Plant in Pakistan, making outstanding contributions to the development of nuclear power.
