Qian Zhimin, chairman of the board of China Guangdong Nuclear Power Holding Co, was elected to succeed Shreyans Kumar Jain as WANO president at the Delhi meeting. The presidency is an honorary position with a nominal two-year term.

The World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO) was formed in 1989, in response to the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, to improve safety at every nuclear power plant in the world.

The mission of WANO is to maximize the safety and reliability of nuclear power plants worldwide by working together to assess and improve performance through mutual support, exchange of information, and emulation of best practices.

WANO unites all the companies in the world that operate a commercial nuclear power plant. Membership includes the operating companies of 447 nuclear plants in over 30 countries. It is a truly international organization, cutting across political barriers and interests.
