Scan to share From November 12 to 14, the 4th China Nuclear Energy High-Quality Development Conference and Shenzhen International Nuclear Energy Industry Innovation Expo opened grandly. With the theme of “Digital and Intelligent Empowerment, Innovation Leading the High-Quality Development of Nuclear Energy,” this year’s Shenzhen Nuclear Expo aligned with the strategic direction set by the CPC Central Committee to “develop nuclear power actively, safely and in an orderly manner.” New quality productive forces in nuclear energy have accelerated across the board, and independent innovation in nuclear science and technology has reached new heights. Demonstrating China’s hard strength in nuclear energy on a record-breaking scale, the exhibition covered 60,000 square meters and brought together more than 600 leading enterprises from China and abroad, showcasing over 50,000 cutting-edge technological achievements. It is the largest event in the history of nuclear energy in China and even the world.
During the conference, the China Electric Power Development Promotion Association and China National Nuclear Corporation jointly hosted the sub-forum “High-Quality Marine Development with Infinite Nuclear Power.” Representatives from the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Water Resources, relevant authoritative institutions, local governments, and upstream and downstream enterprises in the nuclear energy industry attended the event. The event focused on cutting-edge topics such as nuclear power safety and the development of island nuclear power plant sites, building an integrated innovation system of “nuclear technology + marine economy,” actively practicing development through the sea and strengthening the nation through the sea, and responding to the call to build a “New Guangdong on the Sea.”
With the theme of “Infinite Nuclear Power · Creating the Future Together” and the highlight of “New CNNC on the Sea,” CNNC comprehensively presented the integrated strength of the full nuclear industry chain and its eight core advantages. The exhibition area not only highlighted CNNC’s responsibility as a leading enterprise in the nuclear industry——playing a core role in key areas such as serving the advancement of Chinese modernization, supporting the implementation of China’s “three-step” nuclear energy development strategy, and contributing to the construction of Maoming’s zero-carbon industry——but also showcased CNNC’s cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements in the comprehensive utilization and development of nuclear energy and the digital transformation of the nuclear industry.
This year’s Shenzhen Nuclear Expo focused on the content of “New CNNC on the Sea,” centrally displaying achievements such as uranium extraction from seawater, nuclear fuel, engineering construction, and floating reactors. As one of the core exhibits in the exhibition area, the planning sand table of the Maoming Zero-Carbon Industrial Park attracted widespread attention from all sectors as soon as it was unveiled. With Hualong One and the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor as the core of its zero-carbon energy supply, the industrial park provides a globally innovative model for the coupled development of nuclear energy and the petrochemical industry, establishes a demonstration brand for green energy solutions in industrial parks, and serves as a model project for practicing the “new development philosophy.”
CNNC’s “8+N” modern industrial system, Hualong One, Linglong One, integrated fast reactor, the next-generation artificial sun “China Circulation-3,” and other advanced nuclear energy technological achievements, along with a variety of representative nuclear technology application products, were showcased together. During the exhibition, CNNC’s booth was crowded with visitors. Through models, multimedia interaction, videos, graphic display panels, and other formats, it provided an immersive experience for on-site audiences and attracted large numbers of visitors to stop, watch, and exchange ideas.
