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
A sufficiently-large pile of cash could redirect that tritium from weapons to fusion development when the time comes. Seems better than not having enough supply anywhere.
Truth is if the economics are there, tritium is not a problem. You just put lithium-6 in a reactor with an irradiation channel and breed it that way (its what the soviets did in many reactors including Chernobyl). All lithium-6 is currently used to make fusion bombs, though.
