India Seeks Green Finance Framework Review and Workforce Development for Nuclear Expansion
India aims to expand its nuclear power capacity to 100 gigawatts by 2047, requiring an estimated $210-228 billion investment. Officials and industry experts urge reviewing existing green finance frameworks, including sovereign green bonds and green loans, to include nuclear energy and facilitate funding. A significant shortage of specialized nuclear education and skilled workforce is also highlighted, with committees formed to develop training programs. The expansion aligns with rising electricity demand and global trends supporting nuclear investments.
