In the forthcoming 2019, for the first time ever, the relay baton will be passed to China. Nuclear data is a comprehensive investigational field connecting fundamental physics and nuclear applications, which has been an essence in the development of peaceful use of nuclear. In light of the increasingly paramount role of nuclear data in diverse fields of research and application, ND2019 will address many active scientific and technical fields, including: fundamental nuclear physics, astrophysics, nuclear data measurements, nuclear power and energy, nuclear medicine, nuclear non-proliferation, nuclear safety, nuclear education and public acceptance, and so on. As the local organizers of ND2019, China Nuclear Data Center will invite all scientists and engineers interested in one of the topics above to present their achievements, share their insights and facilitate potential cooperation.

In case of loss, a compensation of RMB 1200 for one SI Receiver will be charged. Currency and Exchange The currency used in China is the Renminbi Yuan (RMB or¥) and the value is pegged to the US dollar with a current exchange rate around 6.75 (May 2019). Euros and US Dollars can be exchanged at your hotel or at any bank. Traveler’s cheques can only be exchanged at the Bank of China. Banks usually open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. From Monday to Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Major credit cards are accepted at many establishments, such as American Express, Diners Club, JCB, Master Card and Visa. 5 ATM Machine Beijing is a very ATM-friendly city. There are many banks with ATMs, but only about 50% of these accept foreign cards. The main foreign friendly ATMs are controlled by the Bank of China. Bank of China ATMs work in both Chinese and English (depending on your card), use the latest equipment, and are reasonably easy to find. Weather May is a good time to visit Beijing. It is filled with bright reds and vivid greens everywhere. Normally, the weather is very warm with the temperature remaining 10-25 Centigrade degree (50-77 Fahrenheit degree). There are usually less windy days and few sandstorms during this month. There might be some drizzle but clear and sunny days are in the majority. Electricity The standard voltage in China is 220 V, 50 Hz. The outlet has three prongs and you should bring your own adaptor. For a list of the outlets and plugs used in China, please check: http://electricaloutlet.org/ Insurance Organizers of the Congress do not take any liability for personal accidents or injury or loss or damage to private property of any participant indirectly arising from travelling to Beijing and/or attending the Congress. Participants are advised to purchase adequate travel and health insurance before leaving their own countries. Safety and Security In general China is a very safe country. However, be aware of pickpockets and be careful when crossing the road. Passports should be kept in the hotel for safety until the departure day. Also note the serial numbers of your traveler’s checks if you carry those. We also recommend having copies of your passport and credit cards with you in case of loss or theft. Tipping Gratuities are not customary in China. However, in hotels and during group travels, tipping is practiced for porters, tour guides and drivers. Smoking Smoking in indoor public places has been banned in Beijing from June 1, 2015 following the rolling out of the toughest ever anti-smoking regulation in China. The regulation extends smoking bans to include all indoor public areas and workplaces, plus a number of outdoor areas including schools, seating areas in sports stadiums and hospitals where women or children are treated. 6 Level 1 7 Level 2 8 Level 3 9 Level 4 10 ND2019 Agenda May 19 Time Site Event 09:00-22:00 CNCC L1 Main Lobby H Registration 19:00-21:00 CNCC L4 Plenary Hall B Welcome Reception May 20 08:00-18:00 CNCC L1 Main Lobby H Registration 08:30-10:00 CNCC L4 Plenary Hall B Opening & Keynote

  • Nuclear Energy and Environment
    In Memoriam of Alain Bugat Alain Bugat, Honorary President of the National Academy of Technologies of France, former General Administrator of the Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique (CEA) and a staunch defender of nuclear energy, initiated the three-Academies collaboration on Nuclear energy. He had invested much time and effort in shaping this report, bringing together experts from the three academies and giving it credibility and excellence. To our great grief, he passed away in January 2019 at a time where the report was already at an advanced stage of completion. The memory of his energetic and charismatic personality rests in our minds. Nuclear Energy and the Environment A COLLABORATIVE PROGRAMME BETWEEN FRENCH and CHINESE ACADEMIES May 2019 Foreword This report on nuclear energy and the environment is jointly released by the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Technologies of France and the French Academy of sciences. It is a second collaborative study of the three academies on nuclear energy matters. The first report, issued in August 2017, covered many aspects of nuclear energy and offered joint, mostly technical, recommendations for the direction of nuclear energy in the future. It was an attempt to provide an objective overview of many scientific and technological issues on nuclear energy (its position in the future energy mix, benefits, strengths and weak points, research and development perspectives, technology and safety, engineering etc.), as well as societal issues (education, training, risk perception, public awareness etc.). But it was admittedly far from being exhaustive. Environmental issues were not considered in sufficient depth in the previous report despite their being crucial for the future of this industry, and the Academies felt it necessary to pursue their cooperation and further address these important issues.

Since January 2002, China, the most heavily populated country with more than 1.3 billion inhabitants in a territory of 9.5 million km2 (17 times larger than France), has a nuclear capacity of 9 GWe with 11 nuclear plants on line. Forecasts of electricity consumption report a need for 900 to 1,000 GWe per year through 2020, and at this time the country’s objective is to increase nuclear- generated electricity from 1% to 4% of its total output. This means a need for additional 30 GWe, which is the equivalent of twenty 1,500 MWe reactors. In addition to nuclear power, China is pushing renewable energy. With the passage of the 2005 Renewable Energy Law, China's government imposed a national renewable energy requirement that is expected to boost the use of renewable energy capacity from 10 to 12 percent by 2020, up from 3% in 2003.

  • IYNC BULLETIN International Youth Nuclear Congress
    IYNC BULLETIN International Youth Nuclear Congress March 2014 www.iync.org Asia Going Nuclear Editorial Bulletin: Asia Going Nuclear Dear IYNC community, The nuclear industry is growing in Asia where 49 nuclear power reac- tors are under construction. One of the main objectives of the 2012- 2014 term IYNC officers was to develop the IYNC network in this region. Besides our historic partners such as South Korea and Japan, IYNC has made great progress in extending its network to India and China. Those two countries have started their local YGN (Young Generation in Nu- clear) with the help of IYNC and are willing to be involved more in our activities and to take a significant place in the IYNC congress. China joined the IYNC Board last August. To start the cooperation, an IYNC delegation visited the country in November. Don’t miss the report of this historic trip in this bulletin. I’m currently working on the AP1000 construction site in Sanmen, China. It’s a great challenge and a unique opportunity. The nuclear industry offers great experience worldwide. Don’t miss them and travel while you’re young! Asia will also have an important contribution in our next congress in Burgos on July 6-12 2012. Top executives from China and South Korea have already confirmed their presence and we are close to confirm the presence of important speakers from Saoudi Arabia and India. Besides that, other important top executive have confirmed their presence to the congress like Mike Weightman (former ONR HM Chief Inspector), Ken Ellis (WANO Managing Director), Alejo Vidal-Quadras Roca (Europe- an Parlement Vice-President) and Danny Roderick (President and CEO of Westinghouse).
