Notes
CGN's contemporaneous primary release confirms phase-II approval and design; WNN reports CNNC's Phase-II excavation, not first safety-related concrete. WNN names CNNC (Xiangshan) as project owner. Net capacity is a provisional 1126 MWe Hualong One design-typical estimate pending unit-specific publication; CNNC describes total site installed capacity as about 7.2 GWe (not net unit capacity). No credible unit-specific COD target found.
