Nuclear Power Projects: A cause of Displacement
Keywords:
permanent ground displacement, nuclear safetyAbstract
The country is currently experiencing energy shortages. Even now, a huge portion of the population lacks access to power. To fulfill the increased demand, the country will also need to create even more power as the economy grows as well as the population grows. Energy resources are at a premium in order to meet present demand. The country's generating capacity is now underperforming due to a lack of fuel supplies. According to the Energy Policy Plan, conventional fuel reserves will be depleted by the middle of the century. All of this suggests that, in order for India to satisfy its expanding demand, nuclear as well as solar power could guarantee long-term energy security. Nuclear safety is a very complex matter that can be properly understood in a holistic way. The present paper discussed about the displacement due to Nuclear Power Projects. It also includes factors affecting the growth of Nuclear Power in India.
