Comment on Lead-Cooled Fast Reactor Proliferation Resistance White Paper 2021

Comments

China has 150 new reactors planned to go online in the next 15 years. They have a variety of different experimental fission plants such as molten salt and high temperature gas (helium) in addition to reliable "traditional" third gen reactors. It's a question of political will more than engineering at this point.

China already has nuclear arms, proliferation isn't really a concern about their use of commercial nuke plants.
