India Nuclear Power Capacity Expansion to 100 GW by 2047

planned

India aims to expand its nuclear power capacity from the current 8.8 GW to 100 GW by 2047 as part of its long-term energy transition strategy. A detailed roadmap has been prepared including legislative reforms such as the enactment of the Shanti Act. Efforts are ongoing to frame rules, procedures, and guidelines to operationalize the framework, accelerate financial flows, and simplify processes to make nuclear energy more cost-effective. The plan also addresses challenges like fuel security, site identification, and human resource development, with potential participation from 10 to 12 companies in the future.
