Abstract

JSW Energy is planning to establish its first nuclear power plant by 2030, exploring various reactor technologies, including large and small modular reactors (SMRs). At the India Energy Week, the company's President of Nuclear Energy indicated that options under consideration include 700-MW pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWRs) and larger 1,000-megawatt reactors. A pilot plant will be constructed to assess technology and operational dynamics before scaling up, with site selection currently underway. The estimated costs for the nuclear project range from Rs 16-20 crore per megawatt, contingent on the chosen technology and scale. [Extracted from the article]
