the Japan nuclear crisis is getting much worse and China joins Germany, Switzerland, Venezuela in postponing/cancelling nuclear reactor plans.
How does Japan create power going forward if half of their Nuclear units are shut down??? How does China ramp power into the future if they are trying to steer away from Coal power???
My bet is (APWR) given APWR does Hydro, Solar, Wind, Biomass, and Geothermal so one is diversified into power no matter how China chooses to build. and, by the way, APWR is also building 597 Million Coal plants also! Author is LONG on APWR

In Switzerland: Switzerland ordered a freeze on new plants or replacements "until safety standards have been carefully reviewed and if necessary adapted," Energy Minister Doris Leuthard said. The decision put on hold the construction of nuclear power stations at three sites approved by Swiss regulatory authorities.
In Germany, the government said it is suspending for three months a decision to extend the life of its nuclear power plants. That also means that two older nuclear power plants will be taken off the grid shortly -- at least for now -- pending a full safety investigation, Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters
Statistics from the International Atomic Energy Agency show there are 442 nuclear reactors in operation worldwide, with 65 new facilities under construction. Construction last year was started on 14 new reactors -- in China, Russia, India, Japan and Brazil.
