China has 21 nuclear reactors under construction which will have a capacity for generating more than 21 gigawatts of electricity, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency. That is two and a half times more nuclear reactors under construction than any other country.

I love that China is not planning to power all future demand with more coal and gas.

Why doesn't everyone just import Chinese labour for their nuclear power plants then?

Because that never comes for free. At least you are now depending on the chinese companies for support for very critical infrastructure.

For the construction, right? That's the whole, right?
