NPCI is building two 700MW pressurised heavy water reactors (PHWR), including Units 3 and 4 at Kakrapar, where there are two 220MW power plants. Officials say that in July, the fourth unit recorded 97.56% progress.

Wonder why they're building these instead of thermal coal plants

From a guy that installed a 5kw system on my house in Mexico, Solar non base load systems are so inconsistent that they are a poor choice if you want to really help people. You need base load power generation otherwise you will have very unstable power grids.
