“......”

Yang Jie was stunned for a moment: "Your Majesty, isn't the emirate discussing the construction of a nuclear power plant with the power company in South Korea?"

"We're talking, but we don't necessarily have to choose their technical solution. ”

The caliph said: "The technical solution provided by the South Korean side is the third generation of nuclear power plant technology, and the construction cost is too high, your nuclear power technology solution is safer and can produce more benefits, of course we have to choose a better technical solution." ”

Last year, the emirate issued a policy on the evaluation and potential development of peaceful nuclear energy, and is preparing to launch large-scale nuclear power plants.

Nuclear power companies such as Eagle Sauce, Gallic Chicken and South Korea have all come up with their own design plans for the emirate, and the South Korean government is also trying its best to match this project, and the South Korean side has also lowered the price in order to export the complete set of nuclear power technology.

The emirate, for its part, was very tempted by this, and sent a team of 75 international energy experts to conduct a comprehensive assessment of South Korea's power company for a year, and the negotiations between the two sides are almost finalized.

Now His Majesty the Caliph has changed his mind and wants to choose the nuclear power technology of Huaneng Nuclear Power Technology Group Company, which is really completely unexpected by Yang Jie.

Yang Jie is also not sure if his help to Bidi this time is the main reason for the caliph's change of heart, but since His Majesty the Caliph has sent him an invitation, then he will accept this order.

In terms of safety and economic benefits of nuclear power plants, Huaneng Nuclear Power Technology Group's thorium-based molten salt reactor technology is definitely better than the third-generation nuclear power technology, especially the hydrogen production efficiency of the high-temperature electrolysis hydrogen production plant is very amazing, and a methanol plant has also been built near Xiaotangshan to prepare methanol from hydrogen and carbon dioxide.

Huaxing Chemical Group has developed a process for preparing methanol from hydrogen and carbon dioxide, and this plant is a small plant that is mainly used to verify and test the reliability of the process and catalyst.

The delegation, including His Majesty the Caliphate, was also shocked by this nuclear power technology when they visited.

This nuclear reactor, which can be built underground, avoids threats such as human explosions, aircraft strikes, tornadoes, etc., and does not have very dangerous equipment such as high-pressure steam generators and high-pressure vessels, so the safety is naturally much higher than that of the third generation of nuclear power technology.

Such a nuclear power plant does not require water and can be built in a very arid desert, which is a boon for the Middle East, which is already short of water resources.

However, the construction of such nuclear power plants can carry out large-scale hydrogen production in areas with abundant water resources, and the cost of hydrogen production is simply free of charge, and the use of high temperature to carry out natural gas reforming to produce hydrogen can also reduce the cost of hydrogen production to a very low level.

The key to such advanced nuclear power technology is that the construction cost is only at the level of the construction of the second-generation nuclear power station, which is more than half of the cost of the third-generation nuclear power technology!

The cost of Huaneng Nuclear Power Technology Group's thorium-based molten salt reactor nuclear power plant is 12,000 yuan per kilowatt, that is, a large nuclear power plant with an installed capacity of 5,000 megawatts costs less than 10 billion US dollars, which is much cheaper than South Korea's quotation of 24.4 billion US dollars.

Even if you add in the cost of later operation, maintenance and fuel for the reactor of the nuclear power plant, it is almost $20 billion.

This PWR nuclear power technology is mainly used to generate electricity, and the use of high temperatures to produce hydrogen and other uses like thorium-based molten salt reactors is not suitable because the temperature cannot reach such a high temperature.

Huaneng Nuclear Power Technology Group Co., Ltd. has only built Xiaotangshan and Jiangchang nuclear power plants so far, and has just signed a nuclear power plant construction agreement with Bosai State, and has not promoted it overseas.

"Your Majesty, if you are interested in this nuclear power technology, we can provide you with a complete nuclear power design and construction plan. ”

Yang Jie said with a smile.

"I will send a team of experts here as soon as possible to conduct an assessment, and after the evaluation is completed, I still hope that the construction of this nuclear power technology will start in our emirate as soon as possible. ”

The caliph spoke.

The next morning, in the mansion in Itaewon, Yongsan-gu, Hancheng, South Korea, the white-haired Lee Kun-hee was listening to Park Jung-hyun, the head of the secretary's office, reporting his work with a solemn expression.

The people sitting on the side all had mixed expressions.

"So, the emirate is ready to abandon our nuclear power technology in South Korea?"

Lee Kun-hee said in a deep voice.

"Now the Ministry of Energy of the Emirate has officially issued us a notice to suspend the negotiations, they believe that the third generation of nuclear power plants is still not safe enough, and they have decided not to develop third generation nuclear power plants. ”

After a pause, Park said: "Just yesterday afternoon, the Ministry of Energy held an emergency meeting, and we received information that the Caliph Vice President personally ordered the Ministry of Energy of the Emirate to suspend negotiations with us, and the President of the Emirate also agreed. ”

"Yesterday His Majesty the Caliph was visiting the Xiaotangshan Nuclear Power Plant in Central Plains Province......"

He then added.

"How unreasonable!"

Long Zehong, vice minister of the Ministry of Knowledge Economy of South Korea, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but slap the table hard at this time, which also startled the people next to him.

"Our South Korea pressed the offer to half of the Gallic chicken, and even agreed to let our special forces go to the UAE to help them work hard to get such an opportunity to export nuclear power, how can we let the domestic nuclear power company of the rabbit snatch it!"

It's no wonder that Long Zehong is so hot this time, originally this piece of meat was eaten to his mouth, and the South Korean side also made a bloody investment, but it turned out to be snatched away, and everyone was full of anger.

This time, the South Korean consortium led by Samsung C&T finally defeated competitors such as Gallic Chicken, Eagle Sauce and Neon Country, and won the nuclear power plant project worth 40 billion US dollars.

This is a very tempting cake, and the only countries that were able to build nuclear power plants and export them overseas were Eagle Sauce, Gallic Chicken, Neon Country, Danaka and Da Mao.

In the 80s of the last century, South Korea reached a 10-year nuclear power technology transfer agreement with the then Eagle Sauce Combustion Engineering Company, began to formally absorb and digest pressurized water reactor nuclear power technology, and built the largest nuclear power plant in South Korea.

When the technology transfer agreement between South Korea and Eagle Sauce Combustion Engineering expired, South Korea Electric Power Company and Seibu Electric signed a 10-year technology license agreement to continue developing their own nuclear power technology.

When the license agreement expired, South Korea did not renew the license agreement, but instead replaced it with a cooperation agreement to develop nuclear power technology with completely independent intellectual property rights, and developed a third-generation reactor-type APR+ nuclear power technology with completely independent intellectual property rights based on APR1400.

South Korea's development of nuclear power industry can be traced back to the 50s of the last century, and in 56 South Korea signed a cooperation agreement with Eun-chan on the peaceful use of nuclear energy, and sent a large number of personnel to Eun-chan to receive training in nuclear energy research, thus laying the foundation for nuclear energy research.

In order to develop nuclear power technology, South Korea owned its first nuclear power plant in the 70s, and in the following 30 years, South Korea became the country with the highest density of nuclear reactors in the world, and has been unswervingly promoting the localization of nuclear power.

These consortia in South Korea provide components for so many nuclear power plants in the country every year, and they are also a stable source of income for each consortium.

Now that it is impossible to build so many nuclear power plants in South Korea, these consortia are naturally eager to make more money by going abroad for their nuclear power technology, after all, they only provide some components for the nuclear power plant in Hawk-chan and do not make much money.
