GDP and Primary Energy Consumption in China

1. Chinese economy has been booming over the past 30 years. And its energy construction has kept going up in a straight line. 2. Chinese energy mix still relies too much on primary energy, which needs to be further adjusted in order to alleviate the pressure posed by carbon dioxide discharge reduction. 3. Nuclear power offers an effective solution to the above-mentioned problem.

Year GDP, billion RMB increase ratio per year, Primary energy Consumption, billion TSCE increase ratio per year ,%

National medium- and long-term nuclear power mediumlongdevelopment plan (2006-2020) (2006  

Passed in principle on March, 2006 Positive policy. In 2020, the total capacity of nuclear power will be up to 40GWe and 18GWe will be under construction. Percentage will be raised from 1.5% in 2005 to 4% in 2020.
The program is expected to be expanded in the near future.

3 nuclear power bases have been established. 11 nuclear power units with a total installed capacit of 9100 MW have been put into operation.

In 2008, nuclear power generation reached 68.4 TWh, accounting for 2% of the total power generation, which is equivalent to a reduction of over 80 million tons of CO2 and over 400 thousand tons of SO2.

Equipment manufacture
The three major supporting power equipment manufacturing bases were established in the Northeast, Southwest and Shanghai. China First Heavy Industries and China National Erzhong Group Co., Ltd. have become the mainstay machining and manufacturing enterprises for large scale nuclear power equipment. The great escalation of manufacturing capacity has provided the important prerequisite for rapid development of nuclear power in China
