Discussion on the External Dependence of China's Uranium Resources in the Development of Nuclear Power
The degree of external dependence on uranium resources is the proportion of a country's or region's uranium resource imports to its own uranium resource demand.Because the natural endowment of uranium resources is not good,domestic uranium produc-tion is difficult to meet its own needs with the development of nuclear power industry,China's degree of external dependence on uranium resources has climbed all the way up to 83.3%.This situation shows China's growing degree of external dependence on uranium resources and its increasing exposure to price fluctuation in the international uranium market.In this regard,we can neither take it lightly nor over-react,but should look at it rationally.We should not only increase investment in domestic uranium exploration,but also ensure a continu-ous and stable supply of foreign uranium products.In order to guarantee the long-term security of supply of China's uranium resources in the development of nuclear power,various approaches should be adopted,such as increasing domestic uranium production,promoting o-verseas uranium exploration,conducting international uranium trade,and upgrading national uranium reserve,etc..
