Be ‘rational’ about nuclear power, says expert  

核电业者：风险认识是当前影响中国核电发展主因

中国广东核电集团(中广核)运营公司总经理苏圣兵18日在2012年中国高新技术论坛上表示，政府、行业、媒体、公众应理性地认识核电安全风险，“认识”好比是十字路口的“红绿灯”，是当前影响中国核电发展的关键因素。

Shenzhen (CNS) -- The government, the nuclear power industry, the media and the public should be rational about the safety risks posed by nuclear power plants, said an industry expert on Sunday.

Nuclear power has faced a tough time since the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, but nuclear safety and protection measures against natural disasters have been enhanced, Su Shengbing, from China Guangdong Nuclear Power, said during the China Hi-Tech Fair 2012 in Shenzhen.

At present, nuclear power only accounts for two percent of China's total power output, far below the world average, he added.
