Chapter 680 (1/2)

Not only the reporters are excited, but the leaders at all levels and the leaders of the Ministry of energy who came to witness this moment in person are also very excited. Although they have already prepared for this, they are still very excited to see that the reactor has been successfully ignited and has been running stably for more than 10 minutes!

Energy is the future. In today's society, whoever can master cleaner and more efficient energy will lead the next era. The Pearl of this is the nuclear fusion reactor power generation technology!

As a large energy consuming country, the national energy expenditure has always been a very heavy burden. We should know that China has a large population, and with the rapid development of economy, the demand for energy is also growing rapidly.

Take electricity as an example. Although China has been laying out new energy sources, such as solar energy, wind energy, tidal energy, nuclear energy and so on, these are not the main sources of power. Up to now, our country's power source relies on thermal power generation!

The disadvantages of thermal power generation are also very obvious. First of all, the pollution gas emitted by direct combustion of coal is increasing, which increases the acid rain in many areas of China, and produces about 1.4 million tons per year in China.

The second is dust pollution. Thermal power plants cause fly ash pollution to the environment near the power station, which has a negative impact on people's life and plant growth. The country produces 15 million tons of smoke and dust every year.

In addition, the resource consumption is very large. The steam turbine for power generation usually uses water as the cooling medium. The daily water consumption of a 1000MW thermal power plant is about 100000 tons. China consumes 50 million tons of standard coal every year, but coal is a non renewable resource!

Take our country's oil demand as an example, or because of the rapid economic development, China has become the world's largest holder of passenger cars, and the annual consumption of gasoline is more than 100 million tons. And the consumption of diesel and other oil products is also very amazing.

Although in the past two years, with the advent of the high-performance battery of infinite gravitation group, the sales of battery powered cars have increased sharply, but this has only eased the consumption of oil.

For this well-known reason, since 2017, China has surpassed the United States and become the world's largest oil importer. In 2018, China's oil import continued to grow. In 2018, China imported 400 million tons of oil, and its external dependence increased to 69.8%. Now it has been 2022, and this number has not decreased much because of the strong sales of electric vehicles!

Last year, Huaxia spent more than 180 billion dollars on crude oil imports. From January to August this year, China's crude oil import volume was 336 million tons, which was not more than that of last year's whole year, but the cost of imported crude oil has reached more than 190 billion US dollars, which is more than that of last year!

And the oil is not that it can be used after it is bought. It has to be refined and processed, and then transported to the gas station by various means before it can be transported to the people's cars. Although a large number of labor posts have been added, the cost of people's energy use has also been raised very high.

This is also an important reason for the sharp increase in sales of electric vehicles. Now everyone can afford to buy a car. The price of domestic cars is really not expensive, but it is convenient to buy fuel vehicles. However, many families can not afford to buy fuel vehicles because of the high cost of fuel!
