Japan's nuclear accident does not affect China's nuclear power development strategy

Core Tip: Zhang said that Japan's nuclear accident will not affect China's overall strategy to develop nuclear power, as the specific impact of quantitative will not be determined until after the end of the Japanese nuclear accident. China's nuclear power development program is being reviewed, as Japan's nuclear power plant accident is not yet flat.　　Will this lead to some kind of change? "The nuclear accident will have a major impact on the development of nuclear power in the world, but I do not see any impact on China's overall strategy to develop nuclear power," he said.　　"The 2011 International Conference on Low-carbon Energy and climate change," said Zhang, a former director of the National Energy Agency, on March 24. As the first director of the National Energy Bureau, once the national energy work "head", Zhang's statement clearly with a certain authority.　　In the March 14 after the Fudao accident, Zhang also inspected three nuclear power plants in Zhejiang Province, and with the Fudao nuclear power plant full set of drawings of the Sanmen nuclear power deputy general manager Miuyaping and other people, Fudao accident causes, reactor type, disposal and safety of nuclear power plant in China were analyzed. So, Zhang believes that China's overall nuclear power development strategy will remain stable and the basis for it? What revelation will Japan's nuclear accident bring to China's nuclear power development?　　Around these issues, March 24, the newspaper reporter and Zhang had a talk.　　Don't you want to develop aviation because of the air crash?　　"21st century": The Japanese nuclear accident, on the need to develop nuclear power debate again set off a climax, in the debate, what is your personal opinion? Zhang: Japan's nuclear accident is a heavy blow to the cause of human nuclear power. But we also see that there are so many air crashes, so we don't want to develop aviation? Mankind has paid a heavy price in the process of exploring the ocean, the history of the shipwreck is numerous, but still have the seeker courageously forward, is they promote the progress of navigation technology, fossil energy caused countless coal accidents, so far every year, the number of deaths in the mine accident is still more than 2000 people, what we can do is not to stop coal mining　　, but to learn from it, to improve production techniques and to reduce sacrifices; people invented cars, but only China's death in traffic accidents every year amounted to 80000 people, far more than the number of nuclear accidents that have killed people since the development of nuclear power.　　21st Century: So do you think Japan's nuclear accident will have an impact on China's nuclear power development strategy? Zhang: From historical experience, since the Chernobyl accident in the United States and the Soviet Union, the pace of nuclear power development in many countries has stalled, but the nuclear research in these countries has not stopped. Japan's nuclear accident once again told us that the development of nuclear safety first, but I do not think it will affect China's overall development of nuclear power strategy, as the specific impact of the quantitative until the end of Japan's nuclear accident can be determined.　　Not long ago, the State Council executive meeting informed the four point of request, which means very clear, I am still further study and understanding. Will not have much impact on the future cost of nuclear power "21st Century": China is the world's largest nuclear power constructionCountries, there is a view that the past few years, nuclear power development by leaps and bounds, speed a bit too fast, what do you think about this?　　Zhang: We have approved the construction of 32 units, has begun construction of 28 units, accounting for 40% of the world's construction of nuclear power, but in the last century, the peak of nuclear power construction in the United States, and the construction of the reactor has reached 61. "21st century": in the development of nuclear power, there are two generations and three generations of technical line of contention, how do you think of this argument?　　How much is the cost of nuclear power if three-generation technology is adopted? Zhang: Do not argue too much about second-generation and three-generation technology, the second generation or the three generations are all artificially divided.　　Overall, people will gradually use more secure technology, now we should adopt which technology, I also inconvenience.　　As for the impact on costs, the impact on the premise of improving safety is not expected to be very large. Regulatory level and the development of nuclear power is compatible with the "21st Century": A study shows that the average foreign nuclear power unit for the supervision of about 40 people, and China's current nuclear and radiation safety Supervision team only 300 people, according to the current operation and the construction of units, the average of only 11 people per unit.　　Do you think there is a problem in the development of nuclear power in China? Zhang: This also should be realistic to see, if the vacancy, which department is not a vacancy? The National Energy Agency is not enough, the most important thing is to improve our national nuclear safety supervision level. The specific number of people is the right standard, not too much to adhere to the people often say that the supervision of a foreign unit must be how many people, the most critical problem is the level of supervision, the level of supervision of each country is different. The State has approved the nuclear safety watchdog to increase to 1000 by 2012.　　In my view, our regulatory level is compatible with the current development of nuclear power. 21st century: In nuclear power development, the disposal of nuclear waste has been a cause for concern, then China's nuclear waste now how much?　　What's the deal? Zhang: China's nuclear waste is small, the number of specific, I can not disclose this data, but I could say that China's problem in this area is not serious.　　From the means of treatment, many countries are the means of storage, our country has set up a small nuclear waste treatment plant, and put into operation.　　Why is the total energy control not written to the "Twelve-Five" plan?　　"21st century": just announced in the "Twelve-Five" plan, there is no total energy control content, what do you think behind the reasons? Zhang: We have been actively pushing for total energy control, but the final "Twelve-Five" plan has not been adopted. The reason, I think the main structural adjustment is very difficult, in the three production ratio, the ratio of two production is high, high energy consumption industry is still growing, which led to the rapid growth of energy expenditure. In the five years of the New Year, the annual energy consumption growth of more than 165 million tons of standard coal, if the "Twelve-Five" period to continue this growth, then five years down is more than 800 million tons of standard coal,It is easy to break through our previously scheduled ceiling of 4 billion tonnes of coal in 2015.　　So it is difficult to control the total amount of energy.　　"21st century": in the "Twelve-Five" plan, the state proposed to the proportion of fossil energy consumption of energy to increase to 11.4%, then this binding goal will be like the energy-saving emission reduction indicators to be broken down to all provinces and cities? Zhang: The target of renewable energy ratio will not be broken down to the provinces, because each province's renewable energy resources and potential is different, such as Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, such as fossil power provinces, do you want it to develop non-fossil energy and achieve a certain proportion? Like some new energy provinces, such as Jiangsu, it will naturally develop more than fossil energy. This goal is achieved mainly by the energy distribution at the national level, rather than the three binding indicators such as energy conservation, emission reduction and carbon reduction, from the central to the local.
