India aims to significantly increase its nuclear energy capacity to 100GW by mid-century, but current domestic uranium production is insufficient to meet projected fuel demands. To address this, India and Canada signed a 10-year uranium supply agreement in New Delhi during a meeting between Prime Ministers Modi and Carney. This agreement is intended to provide a reliable fuel source for India's expanding civilian nuclear program, which has recently been opened to private and foreign investment. Analysts view the agreement as a structural commitment to ensure long-term fuel security for India's ambitious nuclear energy goals.
