India's Nuclear Power Expansion

planned

India is expanding its nuclear power capacity with a focus on constructing a series of 700 MW pressurised heavy water reactors (PHWRs) using a fleet mode approach. This involves standardising designs to reduce costs and delays, enhancing manufacturing capabilities, localisation of critical equipment, and training in international design codes. The sector is also exploring private sector participation and international technology partnerships to achieve a target of 100 GW nuclear capacity by 2047.
