Listen to the interview Social Media Highlight: How China is becoming a world leader in nuclear energy Last week on social media we highlighted how China has quickly become a world leader in nuclear energy with 22 nuclear reactors currently under construction. China already has 55 reactors including 'Shidao Bay 1' which is regarded as one of the first land based Small Modular Reactors in the world. In addition to their 22 reactors under construction, China is reportedly planning a further 150 to reach their goal of 10% total power generation from nuclear energy by 2035. As China quickly positions itself as a world leader in nuclear energy, why is Australia not taking advantage of the enormous opportunity? What do our politicians know about nuclear energy that China doesn't?
