India boosts uranium imports for nuclear energy goals
India is gearing up to boost its nuclear energy game in a big way, planning to import nearly four times more uranium by 2033. The goal? Ramp up nuclear power capacity from 8.88 GW now to 22.48 GW by 2032—and eventually hit an ambitious 100 GW by 2047. It's all about securing energy for the future and making the country's clean energy mix stronger.
TL;DR
Why nuclear power?
With electricity demand rising fast, India needs reliable and cleaner options beyond just solar and wind. Nuclear power could be a key player here, but since local uranium isn't enough or easy to mine, India is looking at partners like Russia and Australia for help. For anyone interested in how countries are tackling climate change and powering up responsibly, this is one story to watch.
