China Opens 12 Nuclear Research Facilities to the World on the 40th Anniversary of Joining IAEA
TapTechNews September 17th news, according to the China National Nuclear Corporation today, this year marks the 40th anniversary of China's accession to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). During the 68th IAEA General Conference, on September 16 local time, the Nuclear Research Facilities Open Sharing Chinese side event with the theme of Open Cooperation and Shared Development hosted by the China Atomic Energy Authority (CAEA) and undertaken by the China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) was successfully held at the IAEA headquarters in Vienna. China opens 12 nuclear research facilities to the global community, and works with global counterparts to build a high-level international scientific and technological cooperation platform.
The deputy director of the China Atomic Energy Authority, Liu Jing, said that on the 40th anniversary of China's accession to the IAEA, the Chinese side has opened 12 nuclear research facilities. The Chinese side is willing to work with all parties to build an open, fair, just, and non-discriminatory international scientific and technological development environment. Share the advantageous technical resource platforms such as nuclear technology research and development, test and verification, and engineering verification, strengthen practical cooperation such as joint research and development, scientific and technological exchanges, and talent cultivation, and take practical actions to promote more inclusive and inclusive nuclear energy development and more open and orderly nuclear energy cooperation, and make due contributions to the common prosperity of the world and the common well-being of mankind.
At the meeting, the China National Nuclear Corporation demonstrated the irradiation capacity, test capacity, disposal capacity, fusion capacity, etc. of the nuclear research facilities opened this time.
