• Nuclear power: clean energy that should not be misunderstood 2019-12-16
    Recently, there are articles that the smog in North China is related to the use of uranium-based radioactive elements in Inner Mongolia and the newly discovered large uranium resources in the Daying area of Inner Mongolia. It is said that the haze that persists throughout the day is caused by the ionization of a large number of air molecules and dust particles by the radioactive uranium dust emitted from coal combustion, which led to the term "nuclear fogging". Is this statement credible?
  • China must develop nuclear power 2019-12-16
    The Fukushima nuclear power plant accident in Japan has triggered global concerns about nuclear energy safety and even abandoned nuclear initiatives. On December 15, the China-Japan-Korea well-known media environmental theme interview group hosted by the Global Times interviewed Zhang Huazhu, the chairman of the China Nuclear Energy Industry Association. It is the association and related organizations that jointly submit reports to provide scientific support for the Chinese government to resume nuclear power construction as soon as possible. Zhang Huazhu said that China's nuclear power projects are safe and controllable. According to China's nuclear power planning, in 2020, it will reach 58 million kilowatts of installed nuclear power capacity in operation and more than 30 million kilowatts of installed nuclear power capacity under construction.
  • NDRC demonstrates "13th Five-Year Plan" restarts inland nuclear power 2019-12-16
    With the successive restart of coastal nuclear power projects, the attitude of the national level towards the restart of inland nuclear power has received special attention.
  • Energy Bureau: Actively Supports Development of Nuclear Power in Yangtze River Delta Region 2019-12-16
    The reporter was informed on December 11 from the National Energy Administration that it will vigorously implement the coal power energy saving and emission reduction upgrade and transformation action plan to support the development of new and renewable energy sources in the Yangtze River Delta region. On the basis of the success of the nuclear power demonstration project, actively support the development of nuclear power in the Yangtze River Delta region. The Energy Bureau is working with the Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to formulate preferential policies for clean and efficient power generation.
  • Controlling Air Pollution Has Significant Advantages in Developing Nuclear Power 2019-12-16
    Recently, experts from the Science Popularization Department of the Chinese Association of Science and Technology and the Chinese Nuclear Society wrote that this year, severe haze weather broke out again in most parts of central and eastern China, affecting an area of about 1.43 million square kilometers, accounting for about 15% of the land area. Of the 161 cities that have carried out the monitoring of new air quality standards across the country, 36 cities have suffered severe pollution and above, which seriously affected the health of the people.
  • The scale of nuclear power approval this year is expected to be comparable to that of last year 2019-12-16
    Recently, Li Pumin, secretary general of the National Development and Reform Commission, revealed that the next step will be to adopt the highest international safety standards in accordance with the requirements of the central government and start a number of coastal nuclear power projects under the premise of ensuring safety. This was interpreted as "the nuclear power restart is about to enter the countdown". Ye Qizhen, a well-known nuclear power expert and academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, told reporters that, in fact, China's nuclear power has been restarted as early as the end of 2012. Last year, the country approved four or five nuclear power units, and this year is expected to be equivalent to last year.
