Fresh impetus for nuclear energy facilities

By Lyu Chang | China Daily | Updated: 2015-04-17 07:45

Nuclear energy plans got a further boost in China after the government decided to fast track more such projects and gave the final nod for the fifth and sixth units of the Fuqing nuclear power plant on Wednesday.

The green light, which was given during an executive meeting of the State Council on Wednesday, is the second time this year that the government is pressing ahead with the development of nuclear power projects, sending a strong signal that the nuclear sector will see lots of action, according to a report by Economic Information Daily, a newspaper run by Xinhua News Agency.

Experts said that the approval is a reflection of the government's decision to forge ahead with the development of the nuclear sector and said that more approvals are being given to the new nuclear projects as the traditional manufacturing industries are struggling to make a profit.
