Japan's Nuclear Crisis, Pay attention to China-Germany Nuclear Crisis Japan, China must learn from the crisis of a nuclear power plant (NPP) in Japan and to ensure safe nuclear power development sector. So yesterday an official at China's top energy, as the country will build new nuclear reactors to meet electricity needs.
Japan's Nuclear Crisis, Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Complex, 240 kilometers north of Tokyo, was rocked by an explosion on Saturday after a devastating earthquake a day earlier, prompting the reactor, the reactor is turned off. The explosion happened yesterday and sent smoke into the air. Japan's nuclear safety agency said it is not able to confirm whether the explosion was sparked uncontrolled radioactive leakage.
China National Nuclear Corp (CNNC) and the China Guangdong Nuclear Power Corp (CGNPC), the two largest nuclear plant operator, has said all nuclear power plants they are not affected earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
However, according to Liu Tienan, head of China's National Energy Board, in a report yesterday on the site the National Development and Reform Commission, said the relevant parties in China should carefully analyze what happened in Japan. Chinese nuclear strategy had three stages: first the development of thermal reactors, and fast reactors, and eventually fusion reactors. But no time frame.
Last Saturday, Zhang Lijun, Vice Minister of Environment of China, said Beijing would not change his plans about nuclear power, although a number of lessons from Japan would be a consideration for the construction of nuclear power plants. Currently China has 28 nuclear power reactors or nearly 40 percent of the global total, in part aims to erode the power dependence on dirty coal and cut carbon emissions. Currently, coal is the source of 80 percent of the country's electricity generation.
The warning comes from experts wary of physics. "Accidents in Japan can cause a great idea anymore in Europe," said Henrik Paulitz of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, yesterday. "And not only before now. Many governments are not transparent enough about the level of safety of nuclear power sector."
From Berlin, German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said that the government's decision to extend the life of the country's old nuclear power plant would be delayed as the nuclear crisis in Japan.
Westerwelle, who heads the Free Democratic Party, the junior coalition partner, had spoken as German Chancellor Angela Merkel faced rejection of the NPP government's decision to extend the age-old nuclear power plant. When asked whether the decision last year was postponed temporarily, Westerwelle said, "I can imagine."
Earlier, European Energy Commissioner Guenther Oettinger said that the safety of some older nuclear power plants in Germany must be thoroughly checked and he refused to rule out closure if necessary. German Environment Minister Norbert Roettgen also urged the new risk assessment on nuclear power plants in Germany and declares the Christian Democrats (CDU) Merkel should reopen the debate about atomic energy.
