16 May 2006 - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has received two separate orders from electricity companies in the US for the supply of four replacement reactor vessel closure heads (RRVCHs), a key component of a pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant.
Of the four RRVCHs, two are being supplied under a subcontract from Westinghouse Electric Company, for Unit 1 and Unit 2 at the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station, owned by STP Nuclear Operating Company.
The other two units are a direct contract with Southern California Edison for Unit 2 and Unit 3 at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station. All units are to be installed as replacements for existing units to allow continued reliable operation of the plants.
The delivery of the first RRVCH will be in 2009 and the last will be in 2012, with one unit shipped each year in between.
