According to August 29 of Dow Jones news agency, French energy minister Eric Besson claims on the 29th, he will suggest International Atomic Energy Agency of the United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA Expand the nuclear pressure test of power plant in Europe to the whole world, this tests because the nuclear accident of Fukushima of Japan initiates the worry to global security of nuclear power station.

Besson shows early on the 29th, he will put forward the formal application at the summit of Vienna on September 19. However, he claims, persuades most countries to agree that there are difficulties to carry on pressure test to the global nuclear power plant.

European Union required the whole euro area to test the nuclear reactor security running at the beginning of 2011. It is estimated the pressure tests that would be over at the end of first quarter of 2012.

The French government is eager to demand to carry on pressure test, and require that supervises the construction of the new nuclear reactor more strictly. France state-run the intersection of nuclear technology and the intersection of enterprise and Areva SA think safe than rival nuclear reactor their, because they adopt the safety standard with higher degree of safety. And it makes their nuclear reactor more competitive to supervise more strictly.

France puts forward the plan that the global nuclear pressure of power plant will be tested at the nuclear state leader’s summit of the near future, even if the whole world test expensive, and who carry on supervision and who have the right, order unsafe nuclear power plant it shuts off to be so obvious.

Besson show France continue, enable core, generate electricity, independence of can make France in energying this still, and the electric cost is relatively low. He adds, 58 verification procedures which ran the nuclear reactor of France have already carried on half, and independent authorities will announce the report at the end of the year.
