China s safety standard for nuclear power reflects the world s highest nuclear norm, said a senior academician with the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
The country s self-developed third-generation technology can substantially reduce the risk of radioactive leakage to prevent the long-term effect for the ecology, environment and the public, said Ye Qizhen of the Chinese Academy of Engineering during the 14th China International Exhibition on Nuclear Power Industry 2021 held in Beijing on Wednesday.
Ye s comment came after the Japanese government announced on Tuesday to dump Fukushima s contaminated radioactive wastewater into the sea, which is believed to put humanity s future at risk.

China has taken the global lead in nuclear energy construction capacity, as the installed capacity of nuclear power generating units under construction remained the world s largest in the past few years with 17 units currently under construction, according to the Blue Book of Nuclear Energy 2021 released by China Nuclear Energy Association on Wednesday.
A total of 17 nuclear power generating units are under construction with a total capacity of 18.53 million kilowatts, CNEA Secretary General Zhang Tingke said in an interview with CCTV on Wednesday, adding that all nuclear power projects under construction are making steady progress, and China has fully mastered the core technology of manufacturing advanced nuclear power equipment.
