1. In 2025, the approval of domestic nuclear power projects were opened for the first time: the National Standing Committee approved 10 new units, promoting more than 200 billion investment

According to CCTV: Li Qiang presided over an executive meeting of the State Council and decided to approve nuclear power projects such as the third phase of the Zhejiang Sanmen project. It is understood from many parties in the industry that the new projects approved at the National Standing Committee are Guangxi Fangchenggang Nuclear Power Phase III, Guangdong Taishan Nuclear Power Phase II, Zhejiang Sanmen Nuclear Power Phase III, Shandong Haiyang Nuclear Power Phase III, Fujian Xiapu Nuclear Power Phase I, a total of 5 projects and 10 new units. So far, since 2022, China has approved 10 or more nuclear power units per year for four consecutive years, maintaining a normalized pace of approval. It is learned that the above new projects all use independent third-generation nuclear power technology, including 8 Hualong No. 1 units. Nuclear power projects have always been an important driving force for expanding effective investment, and the total investment of the newly approved units is more than 200 billion yuan, based on the investment intensity of about 20 billion yuan for a single domestic million-kilowatt third-generation nuclear power unit.

2. National Energy Administration: China will further increase investment in research and development of key nuclear power technologies

He Yang, Deputy Director of the National Energy Administration, said at the 2025 Spring International Forum on Sustainable Development of Nuclear Energy on the 27th that China will further increase investment in key technology research and development, improve innovation capabilities and levels in materials, fuels, software, and processes, improve the nuclear power science and technology innovation system, promote the research and development demonstration of new-generation technologies such as small reactors and fourth-generation reactors, and actively cultivate the innovation driving force for the high-quality development of nuclear power. It is necessary to seize the current important opportunity period for the development of nuclear power, actively and orderly promote the construction of coastal nuclear power under the premise of ensuring safety, scientifically and rationally determine the layout of nuclear power plants, and maintain a steady pace of construction. Accelerate the test and demonstration of advanced nuclear power technology, actively promote the heating and comprehensive utilization of nuclear energy, do a good job in the protection of plant site resources, and form a development pattern of "building a batch of plants, reserving a batch of plants, protecting a batch of plants, and demonstrating a batch of plants".

3. Ministry of Commerce: will actively work with relevant departments to accelerate the implementation of the departure tax refund policy

On April 27, the State Council Information Office held a press conference on the optimization of the departure tax refund policy and the expansion of inbound consumption. Sheng Qiuping, Vice Minister of Commerce, said that the "Notice on Further Optimizing the Departure Tax Refund Policy and Expanding Inbound Consumption" mainly focuses on the problems of fewer tax-free shops, few tax-free shopping options, fewer domestic products, and the convenience of tax refund needs to be further improved. In the next step, the Ministry of Commerce will actively work with relevant departments to accelerate the implementation of the policy, guide all localities to establish and improve the working mechanism, innovate work measures, and continuously improve the quality and level of departure tax refund services, so as to make tax refund more convenient and more satisfactory for overseas tourists.

4. Important research and judgment of low-altitude economy: In 2027, the airspace management of provincial cities will be "flying" or gradually decentralized to prefecture-level cities

With the theme of "Low-altitude Economy: Redefining Urban Transportation", the 2nd Global Low-altitude Economy Forum Spring Conference opened on April 27. Luo Jun, Chairman of the China Low-altitude Economic Alliance, said that in the next two years, the airspace below 1,000 kilometers may be gradually decentralized to prefecture-level cities. In view of the normalization of low-altitude flights, the demand is mainly concentrated in cities, so it is possible to decentralize management authority to local governments, which is conducive to rapid application and approval. It is expected that from the second half of this year, the eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft) will be tested frequently. By 2027, some mega central cities and provincial capitals will be able to commercialize eVTOLs and use "air taxis". In 2030, large cities will basically enter the era of low-altitude economy, and eVTOL will gradually enter thousands of households.

5. State Administration of Taxation: "The second set becomes the first set" can enjoy the special additional deduction of individual income tax on housing loan interest if it meets the relevant conditions

Recently, the 12366 tax service platform of the State Administration of Taxation responded in the form of a hot question reply, saying that the "second set to the first set" can enjoy the special additional deduction of individual income tax on housing loan interest if it meets the relevant conditions.

5. Former senior White House official: The impact of tariff policy will be shown in the United States at the end of next month

On April 27, local time, Gary Cohen, who served as Director of the White House National Economic Council during Trump's first presidential term, said that the impact of the current U.S. tariff policy will begin to be felt nationwide at the end of next month, and this forecast is based on the time it takes for goods to be transported and distributed. Gary Cohen said that people with lower income levels and financial power will spend 100% of their salaries on buying goods, while the wealthy will store a higher percentage of their income. This means that the tariffs will have a greater impact on low-income Americans. On the issue of interest rates, Gary Cohen said that from the Fed's perspective, this institution is doing its job as it was given, so essentially, the Fed has no reason to act to lower interest rates now.
