Under the terms of the contract, Invensys will provide its Triconex critical control and Foxboro I/A Series distributed control systems for the reactor units.
This is the second contract awarded to Invensys by CNPE, following an agreement the companies reached in 2008 for the development and implementation of four large-scale safety and non-safety distributed control systems, including fully digitized main control rooms, for two new nuclear power plants under construction in the Fujian and Zhejiang provinces.
Sudipta Bhattacharya, president and CEO of Invensys Operations Management, said: “We are pleased to continue our long-term strategic partnership with CNPE, further helping them to increase China’s capacity for power generation. Our systems will serve as a digital platform to drive safety and control excellence in these units.”
