Nuclear power should take on a bigger role in China's push for carbon neutrality by expanding its use in energy-intensive industries and supporting large-scale clean energy development.

Lu Tiezhong, chairman of China National Nuclear Power Co, called for the steady development of nuclear power in China to meet the nation's carbon neutrality goals.

"China would need around 400 1-million-kilowatt nuclear power units to reach carbon neutrality by 2060. Maintaining the current pace of constructing eight to 10 new reactors annually is essential to meeting the country's dual-carbon goals and ensuring a green, low-carbon energy transition," he said.
