Beijing said there had been no change in radiation levels at the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant in southern China, which was powered up in 2018. BEIJING: China said on Tuesday that radiation levels remained normal at one of its nuclear power plants and that there were no safety concerns, after the station's French operator reported a gas build-up.

Powered up in 2018, the Taishan plant was the first worldwide to operate a next-generation EPR nuclear reactor - a pressurised water design that has been subject to years of delays in similar European projects in Britain, France and Finland.There are now two EPR power units at the plant in the city of Taishan, which sits close to the coastline of southern Guangdong and the financial hub of Hong Kong.

The statement said that the incident had been inspected and that the total amount of gas discharged accounted for 0.00044 per cent of the annual emission limit.Zhao Tong, senior fellow in the nuclear policy programme at the Carnegie-Tsinghua Center for Global Policy in Beijing, told AFP that the way the issue had been reported highlighted a lack of trust in China.
