AS PER THE US ESTIMATES PUBLISHED IN THEIR VARIOUS PRESTIGIOUS PUBLICATIONS AND AS PER THE VIEWS OF THEIR SCIENTISTS INDIA WILL BE ABLE TO GENERATE ONLY 5% OF ITS ENERGY NEEDS FROM THE NUCLEAR PLANTS IN THE NEXT 30 YEARS AND THE COST OF THAT ENERGY WILL BE ALMOST DOUBLE THE COST OF THERMAL OR GAS BASED ENERGY. IN FACT THE OLD TECHNOLOGY REACTOR SALES HAVE THEM MORE INTERESTED IN THIS DEAL RATHER THAN INDIA'S INTERESTS. INDIA ON THE OTHER HAND WILL HAVE TO PAY HEAVY PRICE FOR EVEN THE IAEA INSPECTIONS IN EUROS.BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY INDIA'S SECURITY IS AT RISK. HALF OF OUR COUNTRY'S ENERGY WOES WOULD END IF T&D LOSSES ARE BROUGHT TO 5 10% IN PLACE OF THE PRESENT 30-40%. BUT THAT WON'T GIVE ANY COMMISSIONS TO PARTIES IN POWER....

if you know the cost of the nuclear energy generated at Kalpak in Tamilnadu, You dont say this. Just verify the facts and then comment on it. Before we produce energy from Kalpak, Tamilnadu, all these foreign countries told its impossible to generate from the nuclear material, India had at that time. Dont rely too much on these expert comments.
