The New worldwide Nuclear Energy Resurgence

Very recommendable! The article lists a number of countries that have recently reversed their nuclear power policies towards more nuclear energy generation in the future!

Strange, when you Google or Bing for a map of all nuclear power plants in China none of these maps seem to show all the 58 plants currently in operation (at best perhaps only two dozen or so). Are the communists trying to keep a secret?

"As of late 2024, there are 58 nuclear power plants in operation in mainland China. This makes China second only to the United States in the number of operating nuclear reactors. Additionally, China has a significant number of reactors under construction and planned for the future. " (Google search result).

"... China now claims to have developed a functioning thorium reactor. If this is true, it would be a groundbreaking development for clean energy, as thorium not only is plentiful but also enables an energy-making process that is cleaner and safer than current nuclear technologies. If China’s pilot programs succeed, the country could leapfrog existing nuclear systems and secure a leadership position in next-generation clean energy. The West still has some catching up to do in this area. ..."
