  • Abstract
    In the past eight years, China has begun to update its power industry, not only to satisfy its own great needs, but also with an eye to becoming a supplier to the rest of the developing world. A description is given of China´s power system, which, in terms of generating capacity, is now the fourth largest in the world (behind the US, the Soviet Union, and Japan), and of China´s plans for further development. Prospects for China in the world market are examined.<>
