] The first unit will come online in 2013 with the other 3 finishing in 2014 and 2015.

The plant will be notable as the first implementation of the AP1000 reactor developed by Westinghouse. Announcement for construction of this unit comes about a year after the Westinghouse won in bidding for the new reactors over other companies such as General Electric. The contract for the new plant includes both Westinghouse and The Shaw Group (a stake holder in Westinghouse along with Japanese giant Toshiba). The Shaw group will provide engineering, procurement, commissioning, information management and project management services. ["Wall Street Journal".

Excavation was completed and the quality of the pit certified in September 2008, making the project 67 days ahead of schedule. Construction of Sanmen 1 is scheduled to start in March 2009.
