This was reported by the company's official Facebook page.
To become a supplier for Hinkley Point C, Centravis has passed the certification procedure. The company supplies seamless pipes for the first circuit and the second circuit of the reactor, as well as for the life support systems of the station.
The first batch of pipes from Nikopol to the county of Somerset, where the station is located, through partners "Centravis" sent in 2019. After that, the company received orders to produce several more batches.
In total, the company plans to produce at least 800 tons of pipes for this facility.
Construction on Hinkley Point C is currently in full swing.
The station will have two reactors. They will provide environmentally friendly low-carbon electricity to about 6 million homes. The launch of the NPP will help reduce carbon emissions by 9 million tons per year or 600 million tons over the life of the plant.
The station is scheduled to start operating in 2026. The cost of the whole project is 22-23 billion pounds.
Note that Centravis (Nikopol) is one of the ten largest manufacturers of seamless pipes in the world. The company produces pipes for Thyssenkrupp, BMW, Alstom, Linde, Samsung, Volkswagen and other well-known brands.
