flag India expands nuclear power with $211B plan, new reactors, and private investment to reach 100 GW by 2047.

flag India is accelerating its nuclear energy expansion, aiming for 100 gigawatts of capacity by 2047 through a $211 billion investment, driven by a 2025 law opening the sector to private companies and easing liability rules. flag The country plans a third order of 10 domestically designed 700-megawatt reactors, boosting domestic manufacturing and attracting investment amid a global nuclear revival fueled by AI and decarbonization needs. flag While foreign-built reactors at Kudankulam remain the only operational units, new projects with Russia and others are advancing. flag Challenges include high costs, delays, and public acceptance, raising concerns about rising electricity prices in a price-sensitive market.
