The Changing Geopolitics of the Nuclear Energy Market – India

Entering a New Era in the Market

UxC is pleased to announce the release of its report on India as part of its series on the Changing Geopolitics of the Nuclear Energy Market. At 120+ pages, the report provides a comprehensive overview of India’s current and prospective nuclear power program and industry, and its place in India’s overall energy picture.

In presenting India’s nuclear power program, the report examines both India’s indigenous reactor program and its plan to import reactors. The role of advanced fuel cycles in India, including planned use of thorium, is detailed. In addition, UxC presents its proprietary forecasts for high, mid, and low case nuclear power growth scenarios, examining the potential outcomes for India’s nuclear expansion plans.

The report identifies and discusses the major and emerging players in India’s nuclear power industry, including a breakdown of relevant government agencies and private Indian firms. It also details India’s reactor program, including current reactors, those under construction, and plans for new reactors.

The report also looks at India’s nuclear fuel cycle program, including current and prospective uranium production centers, all the way through the back end and India’s plans for long-term spent fuel management and reprocessing. UxC forecasts are provided under different scenarios for India’s uranium, enrichment, and conversion requirements through 2030.

As nonproliferation considerations have played and continue to play an important role in India’s nuclear power development, the report devotes a chapter to the history and the current status of India’s nonproliferation issues and details its international nuclear cooperation agreements, both existing and pending.
