This chapter provides an overview of nuclear power around the world, the fundamentals of nuclear technology, and nuclear energy’s costs and benefits. Nuclear energy accounts for 10.6 percent of energy produced for electricity globally. Although a relatively small percentage of production, it has often been in the spotlight for its great potential, both good and bad. As of 2018, there were 451 operational commercial nuclear reactors globally and many more under construction. This chapter explores some of the key arguments made for and against nuclear energy and examines future areas of nuclear power development, including small modular reactors, advanced Generation IV reactor designs, and the expansion of non-electric applications, in light of the current state of nuclear power.

Since introduce different technical routes, during decades of nuclear power development in our country, the French RCC series standards, American ASME standards and Russian standards are adopted, which led to the current various standards exist in their own way. To promote the building of nuclear power standards system in China, in the year of 2012, important research subject “the research on the standard system of advanced nuclear power in China” has been carried out and subject “nuclear power construction and commissioning” is one of it.. By digestion and absorption of four oversea AP1000 units of Sanmen nuclear power plant in Zhejiang province and Haiyang nuclear power plant in Shandong province, the building of standard system during nuclear power construction suitable to our national condition is studied, including the system frame and composition standards, building standard system method during construction, namely through research and example to present what kind of standard system is suitable for China standard system during construction, and what kind of method or design is used to obtain and maintain such system. The thesis is to promote the subject research methods based on examples to build China’s nuclear power standard system.

The harmonious development of economic, energy and environment is an important premise to realize the objective of China’s modernization. Currently, different parts of China have different main energy source, while nuclear power development has many opportunities and challenges. This paper considers the current trends of energy needs in China, and discusses the different influencing factors of energy needs throughout China. In addition, this paper will focus on the potential nuclear power development in China, which mainly focuses on policy, technology, nuclear security and social attitude. Then it will focus on the application in Shenzhen (Daya Bay). Based on previous analysis, technical/engineering feasibility and site feasibility are considered in this part. Finally, a number of recommendations for nuclear development management in China will be given. These recommendations will help the public to have a basic understanding of nuclear power management, and to improve the social attitude of China’s nuclear energy development. In all, this paper puts forward the management methodology of nuclear power industry, which has positive significance for the field of nuclear power education. Meanwhile, the paper will play a positive role on popularize the knowledge of nuclear power to the public.

The career of W .B. Lewis divides naturally into two parts. The first part extends from his birth through his years at Cambridge and his wartime involvement with radar. The second part was spent in Canada where he directed Canadian nuclear research and nuclear power development. Each of these parts is the special responsibility of one of the authors.
