Science and Technology Daily reported today that the world’s first 200,000 kilowatt high-temperature gas-cooled reactor demonstration project, in China, released an exact statement of the time of its power generation. ST Daily says that the demonstration project will be loaded in April and the power generation will be officially put into commercial operation by the end of this year. China began working on this fourth-generation nuclear power source in the 1980s with a 10 MW reactor at Tsinghua University. As a major national science project it was upgraded to a 200,000 kW reactor. Different from the pressurized water reactor technology used in the third-generation nuclear power plant, the high-temperature reactor has good inherent safety and can ensure that the reactor core does not melt and release radioactivity in a possible accident. It is the nuclear reactor with the highest power generation efficiency at present.
