Abstract

At present, China's nuclear power projects are mainly concentrated on the coast. The nationwide built nuclear power projects are mainly located in the three coastal provinces including Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu. The nuclear power projects under construction are also centered in the coastal 7 provinces including Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Zhejiang, Liaoning, Fujian and Shandong. The serious nuclear leak at Japan Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant poses a severe problem for the world to re-examine the development of coastal nuclear power. In the present work, the characteristics of the construction of nuclear power plants in China were summarized, the major marine environment for construction of nuclear power plants and potential ecological risks were analyzed, and the marine elements associated with the siting of coastal nuclear power plants were proposed, in order to provide a reference for future siting of coastal nuclear power plants.
