Break the bottleneck of nuclear power technology development

More importantly, the high-temperature gas cooled reactor has greatly expanded the field of nuclear power utilization. The high temperature working medium produced by the high temperature gas cooled reactor can be used as a high temperature process heat source for coal gasification, liquefaction, technical smelting and other processes, district heating and seawater desalination, and can greatly reduce the cost of high temperature hydrogen production, forming a pollution-free, emission-free energy chain. Fractional utilization of waste heat can also reduce the operating cost of power station.

To promote energy transformation and achieve the goal of "dual carbon" is a complex systematic project, because each energy solution has its advantages and disadvantages, it is impossible to rely on a single type of energy to complete the transformation task. Given the scale of global warming and human development, nuclear power will remain an important part of the energy supply. The emergence of high-temperature gas cooled reactors has made it possible to build and utilize nuclear power as safely and efficiently as Lego, and its safety and economic advantages will have a major impact once proven in commercialization. In the face of the upcoming replacement of the global nuclear energy system, we should make full use of China's relatively leading advantages in high temperature gas cooled reactor technology, with the help of demonstration projects, continue to promote the technical research of high temperature gas cooled reactor, explore the commercial application and commercial advantages of high temperature gas cooled reactor, seize the commanding heights of the world's nuclear power technology, so that advanced nuclear power technology can better ensure energy security and serve carbon neutrality.
