CNNC stepping up overseas energy moves

Third-generation nuclear technology has a competitive edge, company chairman says

China National Nuclear Corporation, one of China's largest nuclear operators, said on Wednesday that it is seeking deeper cooperation with other countries by localizing its homegrown nuclear technology.

"We hope to share our nuclear technology - the Hualong One - with other countries, and provide localized services, so that nuclear power can play an important role in dealing with energy and environmental problems in those countries," said Sun Qin, chairman of CNNC.
