Nuclear and Thermal Power Plants of India
India’s electricity sector is dominated by thermal power plants which use coal as fuel. In 2021, coal-based thermal power plants generated about 75% of the total electricity produced in India. Nuclear power was introduced to India between 1966 and 1976 in the western, northern, and southern regions of the country due to their distance from coal fields, which are mostly concentrated in the eastern and central parts of the country. As of 2022, there are 22 operational nuclear power plants in India with an installed capacity of 6780 MegaWatt electric (MWe).
