French company EDF Energy has submitted a techno-commercial proposal to the Central government for the Jaitapur Nuclear Power Plant (JNPP). Both India and France are working to start the Jaitapur Nuclear Energy Project as soon as possible.
The proposal has been submitted to the Nuclear Power Corporation of India (NPCIL), an atomic power plant operating public sector undertaking under the Department of Atomic Energy.
The Centre will now study the techno-commercial offer. This includes the cost of the project, loan to be given by France and overall tariff of the electricity.
