China Nuclear Reactor

Russia and China are "seriously" considering a project to install a nuclear reactor on the Moon in the next decade, the official media in Moscow quoted the head of the Russian space corporation as saying.

China has started commercial operations at a new generation nuclear reactor that is the first of its kind in the world, state media said on Wednesday.

China began commercial operations of the world's first next-generation, gas-cooled nuclear reactor power plant, state media reported Wednesday.

A nuclear reactor in southern China has been reconnected to the electricity grid more than a year after it was shut down to repair damage, its operator said.

China is experimenting with an “artificial sun,” dubbed Experiential Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), to make way for clean energy in the future. The device setup is a fusion reactor which ran successfully for almost 20 minutes at a stunning 70 million degrees Celsius in a recent test. The machine strives to utilise the power of nuclear...

A reactor at a nuclear plant in southern China has been shut down because it is damaged, the operator said Friday, but it insisted there were no major safety issues.

French energy group EDF said Thursday it would have shut down a nuclear reactor if it suffered problems similar to those reported at the next-generation Taishan power plant in China.

A fusion experiment in China, part of the International Thermonuclear Experimental project, has set a new world record with an artificial Sun nearly ten times hotter than the real star, for 20 seconds

Washington's energy ministry said Friday that the US would dislodge China as financier for two new reactors at Romania's only nuclear power plant.

Saudi Arabia is expected to launch a tender process for its first nuclear reactors as early as next month and will reach out to potential vendors from countries including South Korea, France and China, industry sources said.

Till recently, the nuclear reactor Russia's Zarechny, a town in the Ural mountains, was out of bounds - with a reason. It is the world's only commercially operating Fast Breeder Reactor. NDTV visited the facility for a glimpse of the reactor, which produces many times more energy from the same amount of fuel in comparison with conventional atomic r...

China is developing the world's smallest nuclear power plant which could be installed in one of the islands in the disputed South China Sea to supply power to households and is capable of running for up to decades without refuelling, a media report said on Tuesday.

Defending its nuclear cooperation with its close ally Pakistan, China today claimed that its supply of reactors to Islamabad were in accordance with the principles of Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) and under the supervision of United Nation's nuclear watchdog.

China continues to sell nuclear reactors to Pakistan, a US think-tank has said, expressing concern over export of nuclear materials in violation of international norms and established procedures.

China's ambitions to become a pioneer in nuclear energy are sailing into troubled waters.
