| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Despite the threat of nuclear disasters, Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) are prominent and provide approximately 5.7 % of the world’s energy and 13% of the world’s electricity. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the nuclear industry require actively seeking information on new hazards and incorporating modern risk concepts into safety requirements, and examine off-site responses. India cannot be an exception to this requirement. |
