NPCI is building two 700MW pressurised heavy water reactors (PHWR), including Units 3 and 4 at Kakrapar, where there are two 220MW power plants. Officials say that in July, the fourth unit recorded 97.56% progress.

Wonder why they’re building these instead of thermal coal plants

    The reason p238 is so valuable is because there’s so little floating around.

    I don’t know if NK can do it, I know we’ve started wars over the possibility of middle eastern countries building these reactors.

    But think of 238 like diamonds. They’re expensive because basically one group controlls the supply.

    If even just a couple groups can supply it, suddenly the price plummets and the market floods with product.

    It would be like the crack epidemic from the 80s.

    Also:

    I doubt Modi would sell plutonium to anybody

    Dude just spent years literally telling everyone that will listen he values money over the lives of any foreign citizen…

    Buying Russian gas helped fund their invasion of Ukraine, and Modi flat out said over and over he didn’t care because it was the cheapest India could get.

    Why the fuck do you think India’s government grew morals overnight?
