On Nuclear Power Plants
We might have chanced on the following news...
1) CM of Maharashtra ( + GoI ) enabling the setup of a nuclear power plant ( almost 4000-4500 MW ) with ( perhaps ) the French Co. - GE .
In some faraway... coastal part of Maharashtra.
2) Recently, the AP veteran CM- CB Naidu signed up for setting up 6 nuclear power plants in AP. Here... WestingHouse Corp. of the US is involved.
Well... may sound TOO good to the power starved nation. And... in line to our developmental needs.
But NOT really to me !!
...
...
Btw, I believe ( not sure here ) that my ideations on TA(P)I led some think-tank to chalk out an I-I ( Chabahar, Iran to Rann of Kutch, Gujarat, India ) a totally under-sea gas pipeline. End to end.
I am NOT seeking credit here. Nor desiring one.
Quite possibly, it was ALREADY in the consideration, as previously. I would like to believe that.
I am duly mentioning the above here, but, for a different purpose.
Please follow...
...
...
...
Now...
may I caution our Indian think-tanks and especially the CMs' of these states as regards the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
And...
The sort of vicious situation being encountered by the Japanese establishment. I would suggest these CMs' NOT to be TOO gung ho !! on the nuclear power ( esp. from Uranium as fuel ).
HERE...
I guesstimate that upwards of USD 160-200 BILLIONS might have been sucked in, by now, by this Fukushima nuclear disaster/ meltdown.
More than that... to fully de-contaminate... it MIGHT take another 30-40-50-60 years !!
Please find out from the best scientific ( nuclear + environmental ) advisors/ counsel. The best counsel.
Additionally...
There are reports that the Japanese NOW no longer intend to construct ANOTHER nuclear power plant. Ever AGAIN. On their soil !! Is that understood !!
Ditto... with the French.
Please also refer to one URL that I chanced on...
www.jimstonefreelance.com
Please see...
What this guy has to state about the Fukushima nuclear meltdown.
( Recalling the name of the URL. Perhaps a google search might yield the correct URL name. )
I have NIL idea as regards whatever this web-site is telling or claiming is- right or wrong.
NOW...
It is NOT for this that I am writing this POST...
Rather...
I would like to submit to the possibility of the following ...
What about locating the nuclear power plants ( MUST NEED BE - tsunami and earth-quake proof ) in the following TWO areas -
AA) Andaman and Nicobar Islands,
BB) Lakshdweep isles.
And... then try getting across the power by - METICULOUSLY laid out undersea, specially designed power transmission lines.
Is there any way we may be able to cut the transmission losses to a minimum using a highly conductive metal ( say ) ? That is tailor-made for this specific purpose.
Challenge : The distances involved might be - 600 or 1200 km ??
What about getting some boosting stations, in between ? And... how ?
The power transmission lines...
can be in an extremely robust enclosure OVER the sea-bed.
More DESIRABLE might be - say few hundred metres UNDER the sea-bed.
Maybe, some very smart set of people can figure this out.
CAVEAT being... for DULY securing the same...
we NEED to MIGHTILY reinforce our naval presence in the area.
Which... ANYWAYs NEED MUST be highly ramped up to cater to any threat scenarios / situation.
ENDPOINT -
Just remember the Union Carbide case. Nothing substantive MIGHT be expected, if anything goes wrong, for whatever reasons.
ADDENDA-
I might as well propose a way, we may be able to get additional funding for our naval capabilities. And... how ?
