Engineers at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre in India are developing small nuclear reactor concepts based on thorium fuel. Due to thorium’s extraordinary energy density, extremely small quantities can theoretically supply electricity for long durations. These designs aim to provide reliable, low-carbon power for districts or remote regions with enhanced safety features. Key Facts: • Uses thorium instead of uranium • Extremely high energy density • Designed for long-term, stable power supply • Low
