Recently, Nancal Electric has secured bids for medium voltage drive projects at the Kongquehe, Turpan, and Guangzhou stations of PipeChina, contributing to the ongoing upgrade of compressor electric drive systems. Since 2009, Nancal's core team has been involved in the localization of key equipment for long-distance pipelines and was the first in China to achieve the replacement of imported medium voltage drives with domestically produced ones for 20 MW-class compressor stations on natural gas pipelines. Nancal Electric has provided highly reliable products for major national projects such as the China-Russia Eastern Gas Pipeline, the West-East Gas Pipeline, and the Sichuan-East Gas Pipeline. In the future, Nancal Electric will continue to safeguard the nation's energy arteries.
Shanghai Nancal Electric Co., Ltd. has been officially approved as the 2024 Lingang New Area Enterprise Technology Center. This recognition follows a comprehensive review by the Management Committee of Lingang New Area in the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone, after the company submitted an independent application. Nancal Electric has consistently prioritized the enhancement of R&D capabilities and team development. The company employs an Integrated Product Development (IPD) process and boasts industry-leading expertise in high-power electronics, all-digital control platforms, and speed sensorless vector control algorithms. With a senior R&D team, Nancal Electric actively collaborates with industry, academia, and research institutions to transform scientific advancements into tangible productivity.
The National Energy Administration officially added the "Non-Energy Three-Generation Nuclear Power Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) Drive" to its list of major technical equipment in the energy sector. The Non-Energy Three-Generation Nuclear Power AP1000 RCP drive serves as the sole power supply for the motor. Its reliable operation is crucial to the stability, availability, and overall performance of the nuclear power plant. To address the supply chain bottleneck in this critical equipment, Shanghai Nancal Electric, Shandong Nuclear Power and Shanghai nuclear engineering R&D institute collaboratively developed a 10 kV/ 50 Hz input, 6.9 kV/ 60 Hz output, 10,500 kVA rated capacity reactor coolant pump drive. Beyond the energy sector, Nancal has also made significant "first set" strides in industries such as chemicals, mining, and energy storage.
On September 24 at 7:08 PM, the Haiyang Nuclear Power Plant 2 successfully completed its fourth refueling overhaul and achieved grid connection. During this maintenance window, Shandong Nuclear Power, in collaboration with Shanghai Nancal Electric and several institutions, completed the first domestic replacement of the main pump VFD for AP1000 units, enabling them to operate at full capacity for extended periods. This achievement enhances the reliability and economic efficiency of the AP1000 units and marks a significant advancement in China's nuclear technology.
As Nancal Electric takes on a growing number of major projects and pioneering R&D and manufacturing tasks in sectors such as nuclear power, defense, chemicals, LNG, and energy storage, the company has completed a thorough upgrade of its Lingang manufacturing base. This upgrade includes enhancements to both hardware and software to create a more standardized and specialized manufacturing environment. “Quality drives customer value.” Nancal Electric remains committed to technological leadership while investing in infrastructure, enhancing manufacturing and delivery capabilities, and consistently delivering high-quality products and services to its customers.
