Nuclear doesn't look too good either, the Chinese Nuclear Association has continuously lowered expectations and they failed to meet all goals between 2010 and 2020. The only thing that massively ramped up was new coal power plants.
whats your source on that? afaik they were trying to increase safety after fukushima and have continued normal production. china is the only country to not have a major incident with nuclear despite high levels of continuous operation. they also work with france which has a similar track record.
iirc theyre going to be relying heavily on hydro, wind, and nuclear going up to the 2060 mark, with around 25% nuclear projected by 2060 at the current rate. considering how much fucking energy china uses, that is a lot of nuclear plants.

I went and checked current construction status and it does not look that different, they did not meet the 2020 targets.
