A concept has been proposed on the sub-critical nuclear system driven by a fusion neutron source, which can be used to produce fissile nuclear fuel and to transmute long-lived radioactive wastes as a way of early application of the fusion energy technology. The necessity and feasibility to develop that system in China are illustrated based on the prediction of energy source demand in the first half of the 21st century, the current status of nuclear energy supply and the progress in fusion energy technology develepment in the world. A scenario of development steps is also proposed.%提出作为聚变能技术早期应用途径的聚变中子源驱动的清洁核能系统概念,并从国家的能源需求、国内外核电发展状况论述开发这种系统的必要性和意义,根据国内外聚变驱动器技术及次临界包层技术进展和国内多年的可行性研究结果,说明开发这种系统的现实性和基础。文中也给出了建议的发展进程。
