China's nuclear power market attracts leading global experts in application technology

Singapore Straits Times article on September 22, original title: Nuclear experts go to China to test experimental reactors Scientists in the United States and other Western countries find it difficult to raise sufficient funds to build experimental nuclear power plants in their home country, China It is becoming an experimental field for new nuclear power plants that are safer and less costly to design. Data map This month, China Nuclear Power announced that a joint venture company will establish and operate the “Tangbo Reactor” designed by Washington Tara Energy Co., Ltd., whose chairman is Bill Gates. Previously, the Canadian Laning Group and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory of the United States have cooperated with China. The former agreed to build a new "cyclic fuel" (nuclear power) plant with China National Nuclear Corporation and Shanghai Electric Group. The latter is working with Applied Physics Research in Shanghai. The joint research of molten salt reactor technology. Industry insiders said that for such nuclear power plants, China is where the partners are willing to cooperate and willing to cooperate. Although most advanced economies are slowly turning to solar and wind energy, China’s rapidly increasing energy demand means that it is spending huge sums to build all types of new power plants. China has the most ambitious reactor construction plan in the world with the goal of making its nuclear power capacity reach 58 gigawatts by 2020. Ramana, a professor at the University of British Columbia, believes that in China, the prospects of nuclear power plants are brighter than anywhere else in the world. MIT professor Fossberg said: “China is the largest market that is far ahead of any type of new power plant. If we do not act together, low-carbon energy business will be owned by China.” ▲ (Author by Stephen Stapleshski, translated by Ding Yuqing)
