The 13th China International Nuclear Industry Exhibition is a platform not only to showcase and educate visitors about nuclear energy, but more importantly, to promote technology exchanges.
Started in 1989, the biennial exhibition has witnessed over two decades of growth in nuclear technology exchanges and trade.
Shen Lixin, Deputy Secretary-General of the Chinese Nuclear Society says that in this period, China has expanded its reach, exporting nuclear technologies to countries in South Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and South America.
"Trade and cooperation has helped some countries solve their energy supply problems. Nuclear power plant construction has also created job opportunities for local people. And by generating electricity, nuclear power plants have helped increase tax revenue." Shen said.
