Its not just matter of regulation if it was that easy to build China would be building 100s. And by saying China I am referencing their manufacturing capacity and them being a command economy that does not have the same financial profitability concerns. It is not like they have not tried they have but nuclear technology the world has currently have does not translate to mass manufacturing.
China is currently building almost 40 nuclear plants at the same time.
Effectively nothing at the scale of their grid
Yeah but that is over the next 10-15 years.
They are currently building half of all the nuclear plants under construction around the world.
You are right that China has structural advantages when it comes to building nuclear, and they are making use of them.
