New Delhi: Nuclear power projects that will add 14.3 GW of renewable energy capacity are in different stages of implementation in India, the power ministry told Parliament on Thursday. "In addition to under-construction 7,300 MW nuclear power capacity, an additional capacity of 7,000 MW is also under implementation, at pre-project activities stage," Union minister of state for power Shripad Naik said in a written reply. In another statement to Parliament, Union minister of state for science and technology, atomic energy and space Jitendra Singh said the department of atomic energy is designing and developing 'Bharat Small Modular Reactor - 200MWe', 'Small Modular Reactor - 55Mwe', and gas-cooled high-temperature reactors for producing hydrogen. It is looking into various aspects like build, own, operation of nuclear power plants by private sector, nuclear safety, security, safeguards, fuel procurement, waste, management, spent fuel reprocessing among others.
