Original title: Foreign media: China will build the world's largest nuclear power plant can prevent Boeing 747 crash

Reference News Network on January 1, said foreign media reports, in a bay near the mouth of the Pearl River, the future contours of the world's largest nuclear power plant is taking shape. In in a pair of huge concrete building with no windows, it is a pair of Taishan nuclear power plant reactor pressure shell, surrounded by stainless steel and they have been thick enough to withstand a direct hit 747 wall protection.

British "Financial Times" Web site on December 29 reported that this nuclear power plant to China Guangdong Nuclear Power Group all, it is one of nearly 30 nuclear power plants planned or under construction in Beijing, the current round of infrastructure construction boom is to meet China's energy demand. This design of the nuclear power plant by the French after five years of construction is about to be tested, it will be planned in southwest England, the British model of a nuclear power plant construction.

In Britain Somerset Hinckley corners have a nuclear power plant is in operation. Now, where British Prime Minister David Cameron wants to build the first new generation of reactors, in 2030 he intends to replace aging reactors using these new generation of nuclear reactors.

In this behind the British nuclear renaissance, is daunting target and reduce dependence on natural gas imports desire to cut carbon emissions. But nuclear energy sparked controversy: For security reasons, many people raised objections, while others proposed to allow China to build nuclear power plants in the UK's national security concerns.

China vigorously develop nuclear power, every few months there is a reactor under construction, in order to achieve a haze since become more urgent objective, namely to about 2030 non-fossil fuels in primary energy consumption to around 20% . China also hopes to export its nuclear technology and eventually export construction design. It is in Britain felt unprecedented business opportunities.

Beijing hopes its participation in nuclear power projects Hinckley angle and Bradwell in Essex application China's own "Hualong One" chance nuclear reactor design will help make the world believe that China's nuclear industry with It is comparable to competitors in France and Japan.

China is actively its nuclear technology to the world. While economic growth in Latin America slowed down, but there have high hopes for China. According to the agreement announced in November, China National Nuclear Corporation to build two nuclear power plants in Argentina, the deal is worth $ 15 billion. Analysts believe that South Africa also has the potential demand, the country plans to build 9.6 million kilowatts of nuclear power capacity.

Japan's "Daily News" reported on December 30, to participate in China's development of nuclear weapons and nuclear submarines and nuclear power companies over the motor giant Japanese operators to carry out secret contacts, expressed the intention to cooperate in nuclear power plant export business.

Japan's nuclear deal with the government's firm specializes in the development of detailed scrutiny and construction program to improve efficiency by optimizing processes, shorten the construction period, but also have to use 3D technology to simulate construction, careful management of technology.

Japanese executives met with Chinese enterprises operators said: "China's lack of export experience in this area, this is a good opportunity for us." Operator of Japanese companies to cooperate positive attitude.

China proposed the establishment across Europe and Asia, "along the way" economic circle concept is its mainstay export infrastructure, China in particular, nuclear power plants for large-scale capital export high hopes.

In addition in October to finalize the British orders, China is also advancing to South Africa, Kenya, Sudan and other emerging countries and developing export plans in achieving "along the way" concept, to expand their influence, to become nuclear powers of Road Rage Mengjin.
