India–France Agreement on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs)

India’s energy transition has entered a decisive phase. India–France Agreement on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) is a Strategic Intelligence Report that examines how New Delhi and Paris are building a long-term framework for advanced nuclear cooperation to strengthen energy security, climate commitments, and technological sovereignty.

This report analyses the Letter of Intent signed between India and France to collaborate on Small Modular Reactors and Advanced Modular Reactors, outlining why SMRs are emerging as a critical solution for reliable baseload power, industrial decarbonisation, and grid stability. It explains India’s three-stage nuclear programme, the role of indigenous PHWRs and fast breeder reactors, and how SMRs can complement renewables while reducing dependence on fossil fuels.

Beyond technology, the report evaluates geopolitical and economic implications—technology transfer, supply-chain development, regulatory harmonisation, public-sector participation, and India’s positioning in global nuclear governance. It highlights strategic benefits for both nations, including industrial expansion, workforce development, and enhanced geopolitical leverage through clean-energy leadership.

Designed for policymakers, energy strategists, investors, defence and climate analysts, this product translates nuclear policy into strategic foresight.

Energy transitions reward early movers. Following Global Eye Intelligence ensures you stay ahead of where nuclear innovation, geopolitics, and climate strategy are converging—before policy, capital, and technology align without you.
