India has a largely indigenous nuclear power programme.
The Indian government is committed to growing its nuclear power capacity as part of its massive infrastructure development programme.
The government has set ambitious targets to grow nuclear capacity. At the start of 2018 six reactors were under construction in India, with a combined capacity of 4.4 GWe.
Because India is outside the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty due to its weapons programme, it was for 34 years largely excluded from trade in nuclear plant and materials, which hampered its development of civil nuclear energy until 2009.
Due to earlier trade bans and lack of indigenous uranium, India has uniquely been developing a nuclear fuel cycle to exploit its reserves of thorium.
Since 2010, a fundamental incompatibility between India’s civil liability law and international conventions limits foreign technology provision.
India’s Nationally Determined Contribution to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Changes outlines its intent to scale up the country’s clean-energy capacity or nuclear power capacity.
India’s energy poverty remains a big challenge for the government and the pursuit of the country’s development agenda is extending energy access to millions of citizens who continue to lack connectivity to the power grid.
Successive governments have long touted nuclear power as the solution to India’s energy woes, actual performance has merely flattered to deceive that nuclear energy is the future.
