Nuclear energy has always been an indispensable and important energy driving force. In the future, China will not only be the world's largest nuclear power market, but will also become an important base for nuclear power technology innovation. In the process of global energy development and change, despite the nuclear accidents at Chernobyl, Three Milidao and Fukushima in Japan, nuclear energy has always been an indispensable and important energy driving force.

   At present, the global nuclear power is comprehensively improving the safety standards and began a positive recovery process. Countries such as the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Poland, Turkey, South Africa and Vietnam are all developing their own nuclear power programmes. In the future, the market demand for international nuclear power is expected to continue to grow.

   In China, nuclear power has been listed as a national strategic emerging industry, which can not only promote the research of national frontier science, but also promote the transformation and upgrading of equipment manufacturing industry, and cultivate new economic growth points. At present, China's nuclear power development policy is to develop nuclear power with high efficiency on the basis of ensuring safety. At present and for a long period of time in the future, China not only needs nuclear energy to provide economical, efficient, stable and clean electricity, but also needs nuclear power to help China promote technological innovation, industrial upgrading and the transformation of economic development mode.

   China's nuclear power medium and long-term development plan mentioned that by 2015The annual planned installed capacity of nuclear power reaches 4000Ten thousand kilowatts, 18 million kilowatts under construction; In 2020, the planned installed capacity will reach 58 million kilowatts and 30 million kilowatts will be under construction. Moreover, it has determined the construction policy and rhythm of first coastal and then inland, slow in front and fast in back, and steady and orderly.

   For some time to come, China will be the world's largest nuclear power market. At present, China has 31 units under construction.Taiwan, accounting for 40% of the world's units under construction.. In 2012, China's nuclear power generation accounted for only 1.2 of the total power generation. I think that by 2020, the proportion of nuclear power may reach 5%. Therefore, nuclear power in the country has a lot of room for development.

   In the future, China will not only be the world's largest nuclear power market, but will also become an important base for nuclear power technology innovation. At present, the main technology of the State Nuclear Power Technology Corporation is the third generation of non-active pressurized water reactor nuclear power technology AP1000.The technology has a "non-active safety system", which can drive the system without relying on external power sources. It only needs to rely on natural forces such as gravity and temperature difference to drive. Therefore, there will be no similar accident effects at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan.

   China has now fully resumed the construction of nuclear power plants, and at the same time, it has also raised the barriers to entry. In terms of technical route selection, nuclear power plants will be built in accordance with the world's highest standards, with the third-generation non-active pressurized water reactor nuclear power technology route as the main route. It is also the leading technical route for global nuclear power development in the future. The world's first third-generation PACR AP1000The nuclear power plant is under construction in Sanmen, Zhejiang and Haiyang, Shandong. It is currently progressing smoothly. It is expected that Unit 1 of the Sanmen Nuclear Power Plant will be built in October next year.Monthly grid-connected power generation, Haiyang nuclear power plant unit 1 will be connected to the grid in December next year.

   The AP1000On the basis of technology, we digest and absorb the CAP1400 of re-innovationTechnology will further improve the safety, reliability and economy of nuclear power. At present, the National Nuclear Technology Corporation is making preliminary preparations.

   In addition, China's nuclear power development model emphasizes the combination of autonomy and international cooperation, building a multi-party cooperation and win-win platform. In addition to Chinese and American companies, the participating developers also include Japan, South Korea, Italy, Spain, Germany, etc. enterprise.

   The responsibility of the nuclear energy industry is to provide the general public with safer and more economical nuclear energy solutions to prevent global warming, promote scientific and technological progress, and improve the consumption capacity and level of the majority of electricity consumers; share nuclear power autonomy and localization with the world Experience, strengthen technical and market cooperation, strengthen the exchange of nuclear power regulations and standards, and realize the global common development of nuclear power.
