Should we debate the billion $ intent

China intends to spend $50billion to build 32 nuclear plants by 2020. Some analyst say that China will build 300 more by the middle of the century. That would be much to what all the number of nuclear plants in the world generate today. US in comparison has just more than 100 operating nuclear plants, that US has kept building them on hold since 1979 accident at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania, so did communist country like Russia after the Chernobyl disaster.

The Chinese economy is expected to be the world's largest, and the idea that it may get most of its electricity from nuclear fission seems very natural. Today China drives only 2.3% of its electricity from nuclear power as compared to US and France that drives 20% and 80%. Nine countries get 40% or more of their electricity from nuclear power. Interestingly many of the developed countries are generating power using nuclear fission.

So China is also taking a similar path to support its economic growth and socio economic growth. Hmm!! should this be a problem. Should we ask for the same for India where the economy is growing at the similar rate, and needs to secure the needs of India's fast growing economy + socio economic growth. Let us debate - "in favor" or "not in favor".
