Advanced Thorium-Uranium Fuel Could Boost India’s Nuclear Energy Competitiveness
ANEEL fuel, blending thorium with enriched uranium, may cut reactor costs and fuel waste, advancing India’s thorium-based energy strategy.
New nuclear fuel technology branded ANEEL  a blend of thorium and enriched uranium is emerging as a potential game changer for India’s nuclear sector by lowering generation costs and enhancing efficiency. Designed for use in pressurised heavy water reactors, ANEEL fuel is expected to reduce waste by more than 85% and cut electricity costs by up to 30% compared with conventional uranium fuel.
