Developing countries face obstacles to meeting their growing energy needs without extensively contributing to global warming. A potential solution tothis challenge involves the use of nuclear energy. In this project, we examine India as a case study because it has the fastest growing energy needs in the world. What hurdles must India overcome in order to successfully invest in an aggressive nuclear development program? Despite significant diplomatic and geopolitical concerns, nuclear power must contribute to India’s energy solution because of its high energy yield and low carbon emissions.
