BRUSSELS: Despite high profile international campaign for nuclear
non-proliferation, the Indian pace of building new nuclear reactors has
increased enormously. India has been reckoned as a country that started
construction of the highest number of nuclear reactors last year, defence
sources in Brussels told The News. Citing the latest International Atomic
Energy
Agency (IAEA) report, the sources said the construction of six, out of seven
nuclear reactors that commenced in the world in the year 2002, were being
built
in India, while one was being built the Democratic People's Republic of
Korea.
This figure brings the number of under construction nuclear reactors in the
world to 32. The nuclear power plants in India, whose construction started
during the last one year were identified as: Kaiga 3 - a 202 MW(e) PHWR;
Kaiga
4 - a 202 MW(e) PHWR; Rajasthan 5 - a 202 MW(e) PHWR; Rajasthan 6 - a 202
MW(e)
PHWR; Kudankulam 1 - a 905 MW(e) WWER and Kudankulam 2 - a 905 MW(e) WWER.
According to data reported to the IAEA's Power Reactor Information System
(PRIS), 441 nuclear power plants were operating in the world by the end of
the
year 2002 with a cumulative generation capacity of about 2,574 TWh. Also in
the
year, six nuclear power plants, with 5,013 MW(e), were connected to the
grid --
four in China and one each in the Czech Republic and South Korea, while four
nuclear reactors were shut down -- two in Bulgaria and two in the United
Kingdom. The IAEA report identifies 10 countries with the highest reliance
on
nuclear power in 2002, which are: Lithuania, 80.1 per cent; France, 78 per
cent;
Slovakia, 65.4 per cent; Belgium 57.3 per cent; Bulgaria, 47.3 per cent;
Ukraine, 45.7 per cent; Sweden, 45.7 per cent; Slovenia, 40.7 per cent;
Armenia,
40.5 per cent; Switzerland 39.5 per cent.
