Abstract
This paper makes an analysis of the nuclear power position in China energy structure and science & technology system as well as the necessity of nuclear power development in the view of emission reduction, energy structure adjustment and environmental protection. Based on the situation of the existing power plants in China and the features of the independently designed advanced power plants, this paper shows the safety of nuclear power. A nuclear power plant will not do harm to environment and the public, according to the data of radioactivity release which is obtained from operational nuclear plant, and further discusses the nuclear fuel cycle and the treatment and management Strategies of the nuclear waste. Through the assessment of the capacity of nuclear power and supporting nuclear fuel industry as well as the situation of the equipment and related industry development, this paper predicts the medium and long term development of nuclear power, indicating that the industrial base of China has the ability to support the scale development of nuclear power. In turn, the related industries development will be promoted by nuclear power with the improvement of the technology level and high-tech content, thus developing into high-grade industries which contribute to the economic transition of China.
