The Indian nuclear energy industry is evolving as the country looks for new sustainable ways to power its burgeoning middle class. Thanks to the U.S.-India civil nuclear deal, the Indian and U.S. nuclear industries now enjoy unprecedented opportunities to expand into new markets. But numerous impediments—including public discomfort with nuclear power and the international nuclear industry’s discomfort with India’s nuclear liability legislation—continue to cloud these prospects.
Ambassador T.P. Sreenivasan discussed the key elements for fostering a cooperative and successful civil nuclear energy partnership between India and the United States. Ashley J. Tellis moderated.
