Dong Baotong, vice-minister of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and director of the State Nuclear Safety Administration, said at the press conference of the State Information Office on the 13th that during the “15th Five-Year Plan” period, the number of nuclear power units operated by China will rise to the top in the world. Currently, China is number one in the world and the second in operation. The number of units that have obtained operating permits has reached 65, and by 2030, it will be number one in the world. At that time, it will become number one in the world, and the task of ensuring a high level of nuclear safety will be even more onerous.
