This report explores the current landscape of energy production, consumption, and sustainability in India, with special emphasis on nuclear power as a potential means to address the country’s growing energy needs amid climate and geopolitical challenges. It presents data on energy trends, discusses the sustainability of various energy sources, and evaluates nuclear energy's role within India's broader economic and environmental objectives. Key highlights include India's energy deficits, growth in renewable, and the challenges faced in expanding nuclear capacity, including political, technological, and infrastructural obstacles.
