The electricity generated by Unit 1 of Hongyanhe NPP can meet 1/4 of Dalian City's electricity requirement, the emission reduced is equal to the function of 16,500 hectares of forest. After operation begins for the first four units of Hongyanhe NPP, it will be able to supply all the electricity for Dalian city and reduce the emission of 24 million tons of carbon dioxide, 230,000 tons of sulfur dioxide and 150,000 tons of nitric oxide annually.
