Guizhou provincial plan for a CGN small-reactor nuclear demonstration (4 x 100 MW, 13th Five-Year Plan draft)

Guizhou's draft 13th Five-Year energy plan (reported April 2016) listed a nuclear small-reactor demonstration in which CGN proposed four 100 MW small reactors, with site selection in Xingyi, Zhenning, Yuping and other places. In 2013 a provincial site-survey report and a small-reactor site resource analysis had passed expert review. This is a provincial planning target, not a selected site, approval or construction.
