NTPC gets into action to develop mega PWR-based nuclear projects

NTPC plans to develop nuclear power capacity using pressurised water reactor technology. Global consultants are invited to prepare tender documents and evaluate bids. This initiative follows the promulgation of the SHANTI Act, allowing private sector participation. NTPC aims to build thirty gigawatts of nuclear capacity on its own. The company is also exploring tie-ups with Rosatom and EDF for PWR projects.
