Tianwan 7 reaches the grid, Mochovce 4 waits, Poland orders AP1000 parts
Tianwan 7, a VVER-1200 in Jiangsu, sent its first power to China's grid on October 8, 2026, CNNC said; Slovakia's Mochovce 4 missed its October 13 grid connection while part of its technical tests is repeated. Poland's PEJ told Westinghouse to start ordering six long-lead nuclear-island components for its first AP1000, Westinghouse placed conditional module orders with four Polish suppliers, and PEJ and PGE split work on a second plant.
