Nuclear energy can help address India's energy crisis by providing a stable source of power. Currently nuclear power generates only 3% of India's electricity but with increased investment this could rise to 8% by 2032. While nuclear power plants take years to build, they produce much less waste and have lower emissions than coal plants. Nuclear energy could boost energy security and economic growth while helping India meet its rising energy demands in an environmentally sustainable way.

5. It’s Cheaper

8. What is the reason for the power crisis in the country? Over 65% of power generated currently is contributed by thermal i.e coal Rising per capita electricity consumption due to strong economic growth government reforms working as major driving forces High Transmission and Distribution Losses, Small Capital Outlay by Indian Distribution Equipment Players & Regulatory Complications are major obstacles before Indian power sector.

12. Nuclear Power is the greatest facilitator of energy security in countries with inadequate domestic energy resources Requirement of natural uranium for a 1000 MWe Nuclear Power Plant: ~ 160 t /Year Requirement of coal for a 1000 MWe Coal fired plant ~ 2.6 million t / Year (i.e. 5 trains of 1400 t /Day)
