China has decided to speed-up the nuclear power development.It is programmed that the nuclear power capacity will reach 40 GWe in 2020 and envisaged 60 GWe and 240 GWe in 2030 and 2050 respectively.The basic strategy of PWR-FBR matched development with fast reactor metal fuel closed cycle for a sustainable and quick increasing nuclear energy supply is adopted.Another strategy also decided is that the partitioning and transmutation of MA will be realized using fast burner and ADS.The fast reactor engineering development will be divided into three steps: China Experimental fast Reactor(CEFR 65 MWt/20 MWe), China Prototype/Demon_stration Fast Reactor(CPFR/CDFR≥1 500 MWt/600 MWe)and China Demonstration Fast Breeder Reactor(CDFBR100～1 500 MWe).The CEFR is under installation and pre-operation testing with its first criticality panned in 2009.The design study of CPFR is just started in 2006.Recently a discussion for the second step is under way to faster the fast reac-tor development by a larger than 600 MWe CPFR and as a role of CDFR.
