随着中国决定将要加入“国际热核聚变实验堆”(ITER)计划,核聚变发电以及ITER的话题逐渐多了起来。这是继“双星”计划和“伽利略”导航卫星计划之后,中国即将要加入的第三个大型国际科技合作项目。与前两个项目相比,这个项目可谓工程巨大。只是建造一个实验堆,即所谓的托卡马克就需40多亿欧元,加之后续的运转费用,总计约要100亿欧元。中国如果加入的话,总共要出资约10亿欧元,这对我们这样的发展中国家来说,的确不是个小数目,因而在业内引起了不小的争论,偶尔也会见诸报端。
As China decides to join the “ITER” program, the topic of nuclear fusion and ITER has gradually increased. This is the third large-scale international cooperation in science and technology that China is about to join following the “Doublestar” and “Galileo” navigation satellite programs. Compared with the first two projects, this project can be described as a huge project. Only building a pilot reactor, the so-called tokamak, will require more than 4 billion euros, together with subsequent operating costs, totaling around 10 billion euros. If China joins, a total of about 1 billion euros will be invested. This is indeed not a small sum for developing countries like ours. As a result, no small controversy has arisen in the industry and occasional newspapers have been reported.
