India has shown a keen interest in developing fourth-generation nuclear energy with Russia, Rosatom CEO Aleksey Likhachev has said.<\/p>\n

Addressing reporters on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Tianjin, China on Monday, the head of the Russian state nuclear corporation noted that New Delhi was also keen on using Arctic shipping routes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey [India], maybe like no other, are interested in developing the new fourth generation of nuclear energy with us,\u201d<\/em> Likhachev said.<\/p>\n

\u201dOur Indian friends pay special attention to the technology of tomorrow,\u201d Likhachev added. \u201cThis is quantum technology. And in the format of the BRICS platform, we see the maximum interest in our quantum projects and in this cooperation from our Indian friends.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Rosatom has constructed two reactor units at India’s Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) with a capacity of 2000 MW each, and plans to commission a third unit in 2026 and a fourth in 2027. The Russian state-owned corporation has also signed a general framework agreement to build two more reactor units in India.<\/p>\n

Media reports indicate that India may be interested in another large power plant designed by Russia, as well as smaller plants.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In Tianjin, Likhachev highlighted Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s remarks on the strategic importance of developing Arctic routes, saying: \u201cAgain, Prime Minister [Modi] said today that in his opinion, one of the most promising new directions of action is the Northern Sea route.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The route, which spans the entire length of Russia\u2019s Arctic and Far East regions, is expected to become a major trade corridor<\/a> for goods shipped between Europe and Asia. It could drastically reduce transportation times compared to traditional pathways through the Suez or Panama canals.<\/p>\n

A joint India-Russia intergovernmental working group has already been established to focus on the Arctic shipping route, Likhachev said. \u201cThere are target numbers for the coming years \u2013 to reach 5 million tonnes of transit with India via the Northern Sea Route. And I am sure our cooperation won\u2019t be limited to that,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
