Bravely Undertaking Primary Responsibilities and Missions, Key Tasks Achieve Tangible Results

As the implementer of the continuation project of the "Two Bombs and One Submarine" and the main force of China's national nuclear backend industry, China Nuclear Environmental Protection adheres to promoting the sustainable development of nuclear energy and ecological civilization construction as its important mission. It delves deeply into the field of nuclear environmental protection, fostering a green foundation for high-quality development.

Radioactive Material Transport

The special assessment for decommissioning and remediation achieved excellent results again, ranking first among assessed units for two consecutive years. The pace of decommissioning old nuclear facilities was accelerated, promoting the simultaneous development of eight decommissioning and remediation projects, setting a historical record for the number of nuclear facilities decommissioned. All radioactive waste treatment facilities completed their annual targets ahead of schedule, achieving a dynamic balance between the generation and treatment of decommissioning waste. A new model of cross-domain coordinated operations was established, achieving for the first time the multimodal transport of spent fuel from CNNC pressurized water reactor nuclear power plants, the loading of CNSC "Dragon Boat" containers, and multi-origin transportation. Adopting an integrated "door-to-door collection" service model, the annual radioactive material transport tasks were efficiently completed. The Longhe, Northwest, and Feifengshan disposal sites continued to operate safely and stably. Two CNNC-level safety and environmental protection risk points were successfully closed, achieving full coverage of standardized safety production construction. Throughout the year, safety and quality, security and confidentiality, and petition stability maintenance work remained stable and controlled.

Focusing on Technological Breakthroughs, Innovative Achievements Emerge Continuously

China Nuclear Environmental Protection consistently upholds the concept that "technological innovation is the primary driving force for development." It focuses on tackling key core technologies in nuclear environmental protection, striving to build itself into a "source of original technology" and a "chain leader" of the modern industrial chain, accelerating the achievement of high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement, and supporting the safe and sustainable development of the nuclear industry.

Nuclear Facility Decommissioning

For the first time, it self-funded the establishment of the "Environmental Innovation 2030" R&D plan to strengthen technological support for member units. The National Radiation Protection R&D Base was included in the nuclear industry's "15th Five-Year Plan" "Six Bases, One Platform" construction system. The National Nuclear Safety Administration's Radiation Safety Center completed its official designation. Two national-level platforms, the Defense Science and Industry Administration's Radiation Protection Discipline and Technology Center and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's Key Laboratory for Radiation Protection, were approved for establishment. The AI large model smart water platform was completed and put into operation. Throughout the year, it won 3 international QC gold awards, 1 international standard, 1 patent, 3 national standards, and 9 provincial/ministerial-level or above awards. An expert in the field of radiation protection was successfully elected as a member of the ICRP, achieving a new breakthrough in high-level talent appointments in international organizations.

Anchoring the Development Direction, Optimizing and Focusing the Industrial Layout

China Nuclear Environmental Protection anchors its goal of building a world-class nuclear environmental protection enterprise. It adheres to safe development, green development, innovative development, and integrated development, focusing on its main responsibilities and core businesses, and uses the optimization of industrial layout as a lever to solidify the solid foundation for high-quality development.

Radioactive Waste Disposal

It strengthened strategic guidance, high-quality formulation of the "15th Five-Year Plan," and further optimized the "1236" development goals and industrial development directions. Implementing the requirements of the CNNC Party Group, it fully promoted the construction of CNNC's professional decommissioning and remediation teams and the large-scale logistics system for the nuclear industry chain. It comprehensively halted diversified investments in non-core businesses, clarified the expansion direction for the nuclear technology environmental application industry, and steadfastly promoted the transformation of environmental water services towards "empowerment by nuclear, concentration on nuclear," opening up a "second curve" for industrial development. The first self-invested and constructed nuclear-related water project was successfully commissioned and put into operation. The first nuclear technology project for treating industrial wastewater was implemented. It successfully entered emerging markets such as Switzerland, Algeria, and Russia, further expanding its overseas market footprint.

Comprehensively Deepening Reforms, Development Vitality Continuously Erupts

Centering on the annual work theme of "Pursuing Excellence," China Nuclear Environmental Protection focused on breakthroughs in key areas of governance efficiency improvement, further breaking down management barriers and unleashing the vitality of factors, continuously injecting strong endogenous momentum into the development of the nuclear environmental protection industry.

Radioactive Waste Treatment

Three special task forces were established to jointly tackle historical遗留 issues. It systematically advanced five key tasks: implementing the Excellence Performance Model standards, digital transformation based on enterprise architecture, full-level penetration supervision, domain experts, and promoting the effective implementation of the "Holistic • Synergistic" long-term mechanism. It solidly promoted the "Pursuing Excellence Year" special action, forming a number of replicable and promotable good practices. With self-imposed pressure, it completed the optimization and adjustment of the headquarters organizational structure, with the staffing ratio meeting CNNC's "Excellent" standard. Key personnel were arranged to fully support the completion of CNNC's "Foundation Building" project. It vigorously promoted secondary centralized procurement construction, achieving a substantive secondary centralized procurement rate of 100%. Special actions such as deepening and upgrading state-owned enterprise reform and accelerating the construction of world-class enterprises were successfully concluded. Several localized environmental protection projects in the Xiongan New Area were implemented, achieving bidirectional empowerment between relocation and ecological construction. It strengthened external对接 and internal coordination, promoting the integrated operation of nuclear power plant three-waste treatment to achieve tangible results.

Adhering to Cohesion and Soul-Casting, Party Building Empowers Steady and Far-reaching Progress

China Nuclear Environmental Protection insists on placing the Party's political construction in the foremost position, strictly implements the "First Agenda" and the Party Committee Central Group study system, and continuously deepens the "Party Committee Meeting Studies Regulations" and the Party Committee Central Group's "Four-Level Joint Study" model. It organized the entire system to thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the CPC and earnestly carried out education on deeply implementing the spirit of the Central Committee's Eight-Point Regulation. The signed article by the China Nuclear Environmental Protection Party Committee, "Promoting the Steady and Far-reaching Progress of Nuclear Environmental Protection," was published in *Study Times*. China Institute for Radiation Protection and China Nuclear Tongxin were successfully selected as National Civilized Units. Grassroots Party branches carried out "Four-Linkage Co-construction" around central tasks, implemented the "Consolidating Foundation and Strengthening the Base" special action, and promoted the quality improvement and upgrading of grassroots Party branch Party building work. Two individuals were recognized as talents in relevant fields, and 13 new China Nuclear Environmental Protection Chief Scientists and Technology Leaders were added. Discipline inspection and inspection work achieved new results: one inspection report and three inspection cases were commended by CNNC, and one collective received an Excellent Organization Award.
