Mumbai, July 26 (PTI) Considering that there would be a huge demand for power in the country over the years, India stands a good chance of becoming a leader in the manufacture of low-cost nuclear power equipment, a noted expert said. Indias scope to become a critical player in the low-cost nuclear power equipment market is humongous, former Atomic Energy Commission chairman Anil Kakodkar said while addressing the annual session of ''Visionary Leaders for Manufacturing Program'' conducted by CII. "India''s domestic power requirement from nuclear energy will be in the range of 30,000 to 35,000 MW in the coming 10-15 years. So, the industry provides a great opportunity for low-cost manufacturers," he said. India is capable of manufacturing the equipment, which amounts to 35-40 per cent of the cost of nuclear power generation, he said. Once this capability is proven at home, the international market would become yet another platform for Indian manufacturers to prove their worth, Kakodkar added. PTI SIB SUM.
