China's coastal nuclear power development space is shrinking, inland transfer becomes an inevitable trend

After a lapse of 2 years, China ’s nuclear power projects have restarted, but it is limited to coastal nuclear power. As the development space of coastal nuclear power is shrinking, it is an inevitable trend for nuclear power development to shift from the coast to the inland.
The Chinese government has achieved the development goal of "non-fossil energy accounts for 20% of primary energy consumption by 2030". It needs to support the development of clean energy. According to the current development speed of wind power, hydropower, solar power and biomass power, the There is still a large gap in the development goals, and nuclear power is the best choice to fill the gap.
The Sino-US Joint Statement on Climate Change issued in November 2014 shows that China's non-fossil energy will account for an important 20% of primary energy consumption by 2030.

The Energy Research Institute of the Development and Reform Commission predicts that China's total primary energy consumption in 2030 will reach about 6 billion tons of standard coal. Non-fossil energy accounts for 20%, which means that the supply of non-fossil energy will reach about 1.2 billion tons of standard coal.
At present, wind power, hydropower, solar power, biomass power and nuclear power are China's main non-fossil energy sources. According to the contribution and maximum potential of various clean energy sources, by 2030, their scales will reach 500 million, 400 million, and 300 million, respectively , The standard coal is equivalent to 290 million tons, 420 million tons, 120 million tons and 40 million tons. The remaining 330 million tons need to be filled by nuclear power.
As a result, the installed capacity of nuclear power must reach 150 million to 200 million kilowatts in order to effectively support the goal of non-fossil energy accounting for 20% of total primary energy consumption in 2030.
The need to develop nuclear power is clear, and how to achieve the expected goals is the focus of discussion. With the approval of Units 5 and 6 of Liaoning Hongyanhe Nuclear Power Station in February, national attitudes towards nuclear power have become clear, but inland nuclear power projects have yet to move.
"Most of China's land area is inland. With the slowdown of economic development in coastal areas, the transformation of development models, and the exhaustion of plant resources, the development space for coastal nuclear power is shrinking. The focus of nuclear power development shifting from coastal to inland is An inevitable trend. "Chen Qiufa, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the Hunan Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, said when talking about the development of inland nuclear power.
57% of China's nuclear power generating units have reached the top ten levels in the world. It can be said that the operating level of China's nuclear power units has reached the advanced level in the world. Last year, the safe operation of the 11 nuclear power units of CGNPC was very good. This effectively supports China's nuclear power development on a large scale inland.
