NEW DELHI (Reuters) – Russia’s state-owned nuclear energy company Rosatom earlier this year sent a “more advanced” fuel option for a nuclear power plant in southern India, an Indian government minister told parliament on Wednesday.
The fuel is for the Kudankulam nuclear power plant in Tamil Nadu state.
“The first lot of TVS-2M fuel assemblies has been received in May-June 2022 from Russian Federation and loaded in Unit-1,” minister Jitendra Singh said in a written reply to questions. “They are performing satisfactorily.”
