Nuclear giant reassures public

Nuclear giant China National Nuclear Corp says it will further strengthen communication with the public and build their confidence in the industry, as China adopts the most advanced technology to ensure nuclear safety.

Lei Zengguang, chief engineer of China National Nuclear Corp, says the company has put emphasis on communication with the public to dismiss their concerns about nuclear power.

"Our home –grown nuclear technology Hualong One features the highest standards of nuclear safety, which is the principle to the nuclear development," Lei said during the second "Open Day" on nuclear science popularization and education.

The event will invite students and journalists to visit more than 70 of its subsidiaries, focusing on nuclear power development, nuclear industry system, nuclear technologies application and nuclear safety culture, according to CNNC, one of the country's largest nuclear companies.

Companies, including CNNC's institutes, nuclear power stations and nuclear fuel fabrication plant, will be open to the public.
