Daya Bay Nuclear Power Station began operations in 1994 in a joint investment by CLP and China General Nuclear Power Corporation. It is the nation's first large-scale commercial nuclear power station, and also one of the earliest and largest joint ventures since the reform and opening-up of Mainland China in the 1980s, successfully demonstrating the opportunities brought about by the open-door policy, as well as Hong Kong's role of an active participant, contributor and beneficiary in the nation's reform and opening-up. Currently, approximately 80% of the electricity generated by Daya Bay Nuclear Power Station is supplied to Hong Kong, meeting around a quarter of the city's electricity demand.Hashtag: #CLP
