CNNC, PUBLISHED 06.03.2022

The Expo 2020 Dubai UAE China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) Day of Nuclear Fuel was live-streamed in multiple languages to global audiences on Feb 28.

It was the first time for China's nuclear fuel industry to hold a live-streaming event for global audiences.

Addressing the event via video link, Shen Yanfeng, vice president of CNNC, said that CNNC will always adhere to the philosophy of green development and be committed to fostering its green and sustainable development capacity.

CNNC will implement a development strategy driven by technological innovation and provide its global partners with advanced and reliable nuclear energy and technological service, Shen added.

China National Uranium Corporation and China Nuclear Energy Industry Corporation, two major subordinate enterprises of CNNC in the front-end nuclear fuel sector, participated in the event. They gave an overview of the capabilities of CNNC's nuclear fuel industrial chain and said they would like to strengthen cooperation with international partners to improve the stability of the global nuclear fuel supply chain.

China National Uranium Corporation is a leading force in China's exploration and development of uranium mines and plays a major role in guaranteeing China's natural uranium supply. Its third-generation mining technology has realized industrial application and reached a leading level globally.

China Nuclear Energy Industry Corporation is the only nuclear fuel producer, supplier and service provider in China. Its independent technologies in uranium enrichment, element manufacturing and zirconium alloy manufacturing can meet the current nuclear fuel demand of all reactor types in China and most reactor types in the world, providing safe and reliable products and services for global nuclear energy development.

The International Atomic Energy Agency brings together the fast reactor and related fuel cycle community and countries and the wider public interested in these technologies by organising the International Conference on Fast Reactors and Related Fuel Cycles: Sustainable Clean Energy for the Future or FR21.

OPINION

Victor Murogov
This critical analysis of the history, state, and prospects of development of modern nuclear technologies shows that nuclear energy market has practically monopolized the design and construction of only one type of reactors (95% of NPPs under construction use pressurized water reactors), which necessitates training of focused specialists involved in the construction and operation of those nuclear power plants.
