Dev Randhawa on India
That’s right… a fourteen fold increase in capacity. India’s power minister yesterday made a clear statement of the country’s plans for nuclear power over the next 20 years and however you look at it, they are significant.With six reactors already under construction and 17 planned, not to mention an additional 40 proposed, India is second only to China in terms of new builds.
India’s goal is to upgrade its nuclear power capacity from 4,400 MW (currently generated from 20 reactors) to a phenomenal 63,000 MW which will in turn place corresponding demands on uranium supply.
