Russia will help China surpass the United States in installed capacity of nuclear power plants (NPPs). This was announced by Alexey Likhachev, Director General of Rosatom.
The head of the state corporation noted that cooperation between the two countries in the field of peaceful atom can be predicted for centuries.
China has ambitious plans to develop nuclear energy and aims to achieve a total capacity of more than 100 GW. This will allow it to catch up with and overtake the United States.
Likhachev emphasized that Russia and China plan to jointly develop fourth-generation nuclear technologies. The implementation of the plans involves the repeated use of enriched uranium product in reactors of various profiles, including both water-cooled and fast neutron reactors.
I think we can predict cooperation both in breadth and in depth not for decades, but for centuries.
Earlier www1.ru reported that The National Interest recognized the US lagging behind Russia in the construction of nuclear power plants.
