The Politics of Nuclear Energy in China PDF
by X. Yi-chong
Part of the Energy, Climate and the Environment series
Description
China is going nuclear. It is planning to increase its nuclear generation capacity by building two or three nuclear power plants every year for the next ten years, as one step towards meeting its rapidly rising energy demand.
Will China be able to expand its nuclear capacity sufficiently and quickly enough to beat the urgent twin challenges it faces -- energy security and climate change?
If history is the judge, perhaps not. The Politics of Nuclear Energy in China seeks to provide an answer to this question by examining the forces in China that have shaped its nuclear energy development.
It highlights the economic, technical, environmental and, most importantly, political challenges facing nuclear energy development in China.
