China accelerates nuclear build with 8 new reactors
The Chinese government has approved a plan to build eight new nuclear reactors at a cost of over 170 billion yuan (about $25 billion), aimed at meeting the increasing demand for electricity and enhancing the stability of the national energy grid. The projects include constructing two reactors in Hushan and Guangdong, each with a capacity of approximately 1,217 megawatts, enough to supply the needs of one million homes per reactor. Additionally, there are other projects in Liaoning, Jiangxi, and Shandong. Through this expansion, China aims to increase its nuclear capacity to 110 gigawatts by 2030, surpassing France and the United States, and to shift towards more sustainable and lower-emission energy sources, despite challenges related to delays in previous targets and the aftermath of the Fukushima incident.
