Nuclear energy research is well established in India and has contributed to several beneficial spin-off technologies in diverse fields such as water desalination, medicine and agriculture. The opening up of our nuclear energy industry to global cooperation is expected to substantially augment nuclear energy’s contribution to overall power generation in India. This expansion will be beneficial both with respect to its impact on our energy security needs, as well as in terms of addressing our climate change concerns.
