India go Nuclear Should India Go Nuclear for Energy Solution [pic] Nuclear power plants perhaps can provide solutions to India’s horrible power shortages and outages too. With the US assistance envisaged in recent Indo-US joint statement India plans to take its nuclear power generation capability closer to the goal of 20‚000 MW by 2020. The high cost of nuclear power may be one deterrent for its choice or preference. In 80s and 90s many nuclear power projects even in US got cancelled or deferred

How Nuclear Power Works The nuclear power plant stands on the border between humanity’s greatest hopes and its deepest fears for the future. On one hand‚ atomic energy offers a clean energy alternative that frees us from the shackles of fossil fuel dependence. On the other‚ it summons images of disaster: quake-ruptured Japanese power plants belching radioactive steam‚ the dead zone surrounding Chernobyl’s concrete sarcophagus. But what happens inside a nuclear power plant to bring such marvel
