This order is the largest single order that CIMC Enric has received in the nuclear fuel transport container business to date, it also set a new record for the international nuclear fuel transport container industry.
Natural uranium hexafluoride is used to produce enriched uranium, a key material in the manufacture of nuclear fuels components. With the nuclear industry developing both domestically and internationally, the need to transport natural uranium hexafluoride is increasing.
As early as 2011, Nantong Energy leveraging its comprehensive strength and rich market experience, applied for and successfully obtained a 'Civil Nuclear Safety Equipment Manufacturing License' issued by the National Nuclear Safety Administration, with the relevant nuclear-grade equipment manufacturing qualification and capabilities.
Currently, CIMC Enric provides two main types of nuclear power equipment: components for nuclear power stations and containers for nuclear fuel storage and transport.
With its world-leading manufacturing technology, CIMC Enric has successfully delivered equipment to hundreds of nuclear power stations and thousands of nuclear fuel transport containers. CIMC Enric is now a major global supplier of uranium hexafluoride storage and transport containers.
Mr. Yang Xiaohu, Executive Director and General Manager of CIMC Enric, said, "Increasing demand for global carbon neutrality and energy security is creating new opportunities to develop nuclear energy. Nuclear storage and transport equipment is also expected to see a new round of expansion. Being awarded this European contract, the largest-ever single order for nuclear fuel transport demonstrates CIMC Enric's dominant position and international market recognition. The Company will continue to develop into a world-class provider of total solutions for clean energy equipment through a "dual circulation" of international and domestic markets, based on the manufacture of high-end energy equipment."
