  High intensity proton accelerator now has two major applications in China: one is Accelerator Driven Subcritical System for nuclear waste transmutation and another is spallation neutron source. A basic research program on ADS started in 2000 in China. Recently a Chinese roadmap for long-term development of ADS was proposed by Chinese Academy of Sciences and the first budget of about $260M has be approved for ADS key technology R&D. It includes a CW proton linac consisting of a room-temperature RFQ and superconducting spoke cavities. The ADS R&D program started in the first half of 2011. The almost same amount of budget has also been approved for the project of China Spallation Neutron Source(CSNS) and it is going to be launched in September 2011. CSNS accelerator consists of a room-temperature H linac and a rapid-cycling synchrotron with beam power of 100kW. It will be upgraded to 500kW beam power in future by adding some superconducting cavities to the linac. So superconducting RF accelerator technology becomes a major research direction in high intensity proton accelerator field in China. This paper will introduce these two programs and present the related R&D actives.
