China's Nuclear Industry

China's Nuclear Industry 

China's nuclear industry dates back to 1955. After decades of development, China has established a complete system of nuclear science, technology and industry, evolving from having no nuclear power to owning homegrown Gen III technology, achieving technology upgrading and expanded production of nuclear fuel, and realizing rapid development and industrial application of nuclear technology. On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of China's nuclear industry in January 2015, President Xi Jinping commented, "Over the past 60 years, several generations of scientists and others in the nuclear industry have made outstanding contributions to our national security and economic development. Their hard work, innovation, and trailblazing efforts have enabled our nuclear industry to develop from scratch and thrive with remarkable achievements. As a high-tech strategic industry, the nuclear industry is an important cornerstone of our national security." He went on to emphasize "the need for a continued focus on safety and innovation in pursuit of peaceful uses of nuclear energy, and the importance of further improving the competitiveness of our nuclear industry in an effort to add a new great chapter to the annals of the development of the industry". 

中國核工業(yè)

中國核工業(yè)創(chuàng)建于1955年，經(jīng)過幾十年的發(fā)展，建立了完整的核科技工業(yè)體系，實現(xiàn)了核電事業(yè)從“零的突破”到擁有自主知識產(chǎn)權(quán)的三代核電技術(shù)的重大跨越；實現(xiàn)了核燃料技術(shù)更新?lián)Q代和生產(chǎn)規(guī)模擴大；實現(xiàn)了核技術(shù)應(yīng)用的產(chǎn)業(yè)化和發(fā)展躍升。2015年1月，在中國核工業(yè)創(chuàng)建60周年之際，習(xí)近平作出批示：“60年來，幾代核工業(yè)人艱苦創(chuàng)業(yè)、開拓創(chuàng)新，推動我國核工業(yè)從無到有、從小到大，取得了世人矚目的成就，為國家安全和經(jīng)濟建設(shè)作出了突出貢獻。核工業(yè)是高科技戰(zhàn)略產(chǎn)業(yè)，是國家安全重要基石。要堅持安全發(fā)展、創(chuàng)新發(fā)展，堅持和平利用核能，全面提升核工業(yè)的核心競爭力，續(xù)寫我國核工業(yè)新的輝煌篇章。”
