India Eyes Nuclear Sector Reforms; Foreign Vendors Highlight Quality Gaps

India is planning to change its laws to make it easier to work in the nuclear energy business.

However, companies from other countries that make nuclear equipment say that India needs better quality control for its suppliers.

They suggest training programs to help Indian companies make better products, especially for new types of reactors.

The companies are also worried about cyber attacks that could disrupt operations.

India already has a strong safety record, but it needs to upgrade its processes.

The government is also working on developing smaller, advanced reactors, to help with industrial decarbonization.

This is a long process, so it will take several years to put these plans into action.
