India’s state-controlled nuclear power industry is considering allowing greater participation of private firms, with an aim to developing small modular reactors to help decarbonize industry.
Can this be a future opportunity for MTAR?
The current product portfolio of MTAR in Nuclear includes complex assemblies such as fuel machining head, drive mechanisms, bridge and column and coolant channel assemblies, among others. These products are supplied for the new pressurized heavy-water reactors (PHWR) & existing ones too.
Even if some company other than MTAR gets to develop small modular reactors, the critical assemblies involving high positional and dimensional accuracy would eventually come from MTAR, given that it’s already been a established and reliable supplier to existing reactors.
MTAR previously had signed a MoU in Space for design and development of a two-stage to low-earth orbit all-liquid small satellite launch vehicle powered by semi cryogenic technology with a payload capacity of 500 kilogram.
