End of India’s Energy Crisis In sight ??


Necessity is the mother of all invention, in the present global energy scenario with diminishing global energy reserves and rapid growth spurning high energy consumption and the rat race to secure a stable source of energy intensifying, India has managed to come up with a solution that will eradicate all of her energy problems.

India has unveiled before the international community its revolutionary design of "A Thorium Breeder Reactor (ATBR)". The ATBR can produce 600 MW of electricity for two years "with no refueling and practically no control maneuvers." Designed by scientists at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) in Mumbai, ATBR is claimed to be far more economical and safer than any power reactor in the world. Most significantly for India, ATBR does not require natural or enriched uranium, which the country is finding difficult to import and what more India has an abundant supply of Thorium. Looking forward to the Brighter days ahead.
