The economics of electricity generation via the nuclear route is an important issue. While electricity has been generated from indigenous nuclear power plants over the last three decades, and the tariffs have been competitive with those of thermal power, there is apprehension in some sections that the likely tariffs of electricity generated by large imported nuclear power reactors would be unaffordable. This paper presents a parametric study of such tariffs and demonstrates that these tariffs would be competitive with other options for large base load generation across a range of overnight costs and fuel prices.","PeriodicalId":130250,"journal":{"name":"Atoms for Peace: An International Journal","volume":"134 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131795536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The plan to alter the power mix by enhancing the nuclear power generation capacity of 4120 MW at current levels to 20,000 MW by the next decade seems too ambitious, with only 1% of global uranium reserves. The exercise to source uranium by signing the 123-Agreement with the USA is held up. With the growing power demand and an almost stagnant supply, the power shortage is more acute. This article tries to explore available alternatives that can steer the Indian economy away from this crossroads.","PeriodicalId":130250,"journal":{"name":"Atoms for Peace: An International Journal","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121227902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bhabha interacted closely to set up the Atomic Energy Commission in 1948. The Indian parliament replaced the Atomic Energy Act, 1948 with the Atomic Energy Act, 1962 (AEA 1962) and promulgated appropriate rules. The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) was set up in 1954. The Indian Cabinet established, through a resolution, a new Atomic Energy Commission, with administrative and financial powers of the Government of India to carry out DAE's work. DAE set up the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB) and delegated to it the responsibility to enforce certain safety and regulatory functions under the AEA 1962. Besides AERB's review mechanisms and some enforcement actions, the paper describes two court cases; one related to the import of Irish butter oil allegedly contaminated with Chernobyl fallout and the other on the diseases in the villages near the Jaduguda uranium mine.","PeriodicalId":130250,"journal":{"name":"Atoms for Peace: An International Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132271478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A base for this was laid in the 1960s to 1970s in collaboration with USA and Canada. However, a major part of the development, in recent decades, has been indigenous. This came about after international sanctions were imposed following India's underground nuclear explosions, carried out first in 1974 and later in 1998. As a blessing in disguise, the country attained a high degree of self-reliance in all aspects of the nuclear fuel cycle, particularly with respect to Pressurised Heavy Water Reactors (PHWRs). There are plans to increase the present 4,000 MWe capacity to 20,000 by 2020. The 123 Agreement is a way out to boost scarce uranium resources and let in enriched uranium reactors with fuel, to attain the target and to go forward.","PeriodicalId":130250,"journal":{"name":"Atoms for Peace: An International Journal","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116625225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this period no serious terrorist attack has been carried out against a nuclear power plant or other component of the nuclear fuel cycle. However, this should not lead to a false sense of security.

Years of inadequate investment in new infrastructure to develop oil and gas reserves may lead to a rapid decline in oil production and delays to key projects that have the potential to expand oil and gas exports over the next decade. Broad international suspicion of Iran's nuclear ambitions led to UN sanctions being imposed on that industry in December 2006. Political and economic stakes are high for Iran. However, geopolitics and the energy strategies of Russia, China and India seem destined to play the key role in determining how far Iran can develop its nuclear industry.","PeriodicalId":130250,"journal":{"name":"Atoms for Peace: An International Journal","volume":"346 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124271473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ionising radiation may damage DNA and other molecular components. This primary risk rises linearly with dose over a certain dose range. A second risk describes the probability of the initial DNA and other damage to propagate in the body to cause disease, such as cancer. The homeostatic control of the second risk does not function in a linear fashion. Moreover, low-dose irradiation may adaptively up-regulate protective responses at different organisational levels genetically controlled. Such adaptive protections (APs) usually defend also against the inevitable abundant non-radiogenic perturbations. Below ≅0.1Gy, APs are potentially beneficial in outweighing the consequences of the relatively rare radiogenic damage at low doses. The balance between health risk and benefit of low-level irradiation of an individual may become predictable by gene-expression profiles also for eventually treating disease.","PeriodicalId":130250,"journal":{"name":"Atoms for Peace: An International Journal","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125882593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
