Carbon Neutrality

Lu Tiezhong, chairman of China National Nuclear Power Co (CNNP), has proposed steady development of nuclear power to meet the surging energy demands of the AI industry and accelerate the construction of a modern energy system. In his submissions to the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference this year, he highlighted that global tech giants are increasingly turning to nuclear energy to address high-energy consumption challenges from AI computing. As a stable, reliable, and zero-carbon baseload energy source, nuclear power is positioned to support high-load, nonstop facilities like AI data centers.
