The cost of production of electricity per unit through a nuclear reactor is 7.00 where as through thermal is 1.19 per unit.Who is going to buy nuclar energy at this phenomenal high cost.Government is making ground for increasing the power rate. Nuclear community is not making any business since past 35 yrs US has not constructed any new reactors and 22 yrs we have not seen any european country going for nuclear power. NSG WANTS TO MARKET ITS PRODUCTS AND FOUND NEW BUYER IN THE FORM OF INDIA.

our govt didn't sign n-deal for common indians. The common people for household and small indian companies cannot afford to but n-power at this high cost. n-power is mainly for american companies - for them Rs. 7 per unit is nothing given the business opportunities they have in India.

That is because those reacors are from Russia. If those reactors are from USA, the Commies would be telling us at the electricity from Koodankulam would cost Rs. 20 per unit!
