Your observations are right. Here we target $100 Billions for nuclear energy generation for 20000MW of power to be commissioned in 20 years. Do they believe that building power stations are like constructing wells and ponds. Every station should have a time schedule, material availability, human resources etc. I do not have the statistics for the plants constructed for the last 10 years. Western countries are averse to nuclear energy. Construction cost is high compared to other methods. The biggest problem is the running and maintenance cost. I feel we are going to have projects under BOT scheme to be carried out by foreign countries. Of course with Indian participation for name sake. In that way the country will be ruined by draining all our resources. Waste disposal will come only after the plants are handed over to India. Google “ Group up for £17bn Sellafield job” . Look at the decommissioning cost. Can we bear this burden? Is it right to put the next generation in distress for the energy we use? Import of equipment from different countries is definitely create problems as observed. As seen, everything is moving as planned by the BUSINESS. Indians beware!!
