Echoing the view of the previous Indian Government, Prime Minister Narendra Modi believes nuclear power is part of the solution to the country’s need for stable and affordable energy supply, but can he succeed where his predecessor failed? We ask how Modi hopes to achieve India’s ambitious nuclear targets.
Russia, meanwhile, has been very busy exporting nuclear technology and services and signing deals with a number of countries. At a time when global demand is tipped to rise, we explore how Russia is emerging as a titan in this sector.
We also find out if new digital technologies could help unlock the potential of ocean power, ask how cities plan to achieve their 100% green energy goals, look into new research harnessing ‘invisible energy’ to increase solar efficiency, and speak to members of POWER-GEN Europe’s advisory board about the role of gas and coal-fired plants in Europe’s future energy landscape.
