NPCI is building two 700MW pressurised heavy water reactors (PHWR), including Units 3 and 4 at Kakrapar, where there are two 220MW power plants. Officials say that in July, the fourth unit recorded 97.56% progress.

Wonder why they’re building these instead of thermal coal plants

    1. I think you drastically underestimate what “long term” means when talking about nuclear power

    2. The entire reason for India using this method that coincidentally makes weapon grade plutonium is energy independence.

    I’d say maybe I didn’t do a good enough job in my summary, but you can just read that linked article if I’m the issue, so I won’t try again
