Nuclear power projects in inland regions may get more attention during the 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20), energy officials said on Monday.

Zhang Huazhu, director-general of the China Nuclear Energy Association, said the biggest hurdle for the development of inland nuclear plants is not technical issues, since the nation's energy administration is speeding up efforts to study the environmental impact and safety for people.

"Currently the problem is how to increase public awareness on nuclear safety. We need to be more transparent in monitoring nuclear power plants and gauge perceptions from the public," he told a news conference in Beijing.
