The author is a greedy idiot paid by the US State Deptt & Holtec and having no idea of the today’s SMR market. All US SMR designs exist only on paper, having no reference of implemented operating projects. US will only sell a bunch of paper to India and later on declare going bust, like they did with NuScale Co. (evidence easily available in open sources). You may like it or not, but the only real physically working SMR project in the world is that in the “lower-standard” Russia.

India doesn’t understand small reactor; she understands only freebies, subsidies, reservation, loan waivers, and chants of jai socialism.
