Gurdeep Singh, Chairman of NTPC, has urged India to reduce its dependence on a single supplier for nuclear technology. He emphasized that the country should prioritize control over technology and resources, even if domestic alternatives are 5-10% more expensive initially. This approach aims to strengthen supply chain resilience and reduce vulnerabilities in the nuclear energy sector. Singh's remarks highlight the strategic importance of developing indigenous capabilities to ensure energy security and sustainable growth in India's nuclear power industry. India should prioritise control over technology and resources, even if domestic options are 5-10% costlier at the initial stage, to avoid supply chain vulnerabilities, says NTPC Chairman Gurdeep Singh.
