Industry Potential
India remains committed to nuclear power as a source of clean, reliable and round-the-clock electricity, supporting the countrys twin objectives of strengthening energy security and advancing sustainable development. Recognising its growing importance in Indias future energy mix, the Government has set an ambitious target of achieving 100 GWe of nuclear power capacity by 2047.
India currently operates 24 nuclear power reactors with an installed capacity of 8.78 GWe. With increasing power demand and the countrys long-term decarbonisation objectives, nuclear energy is expected to play an increasingly important role in providing stable baseload power while complementing the rapid expansion of renewable energy.
Capacity addition through new reactors
As part of its three-stage nuclear power programme, India operates 24 nuclear power reactors with an aggregate installed capacity of 8.78 GWe. In addition, nine reactor units aggregating approximately 7.5 GWe are under construction, while several other projects are progressing through pre-project and preparatory stages.
The commissioning of the indigenously designed 700 MWe PHWRs at Kakarap Units 3 & 4 represents an important milestone in Indias journey towards technological self-reliance and provides the foundation for the deployment of additional 700 MWe PHWRs across the country.
The Government has also approved 10 indigenous 700 MWe PHWRs aggregating 7 GWe under the fleet-mode programme. These comprise Kaiga Units 5 & 6, Gorakhpur Units 3 & 4, Chutka Units 1 & 2 and Mahi Banswara Units 1, 2, 3 & 4. Construction has commenced on Kaiga Units 5 & 6, while the remaining fleet-mode reactors are progressing through various pre-project and preparatory stages. Further, NPCIL has submitted proposals to the Government for 10 additional 700 MWe PHWRs at KAPS 5 & 6, RAPS 9 & 10, NAPS 3 & 4 and Bhirampur 1, 2, 3& 4. The continued expansion of Indias indigenous PHWR programme presents a sizeable long-term opportunity for the domestic nuclear manufacturing and supply-chain ecosystem
India is also pursuing large-scale nuclear capacity addition through collaboration with international players. The proposed Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project in Maharashtra, being pursued in cooperation with France, envisages the development of six large European Pressurised Reactors (EPRs). Once implemented, the project would represent a significant addition to Indias nuclear generation capacity and create opportunities across the highly specialised nuclear supply chain, which is characterised by stringent qualification requirements and high barriers to entry.
Another significant milestone was achieved recently, when Indias indigenously developed 500 MWe Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) at Kalpakam achieved first criticality, marking significant progress towards the second stage of Indias three-stage nuclear power programme. The PFBR is expected to be commissioned by Dec 2026 and government has initiated pre project work for FBR 1 and 2.

Fuel Cells Industry Potential
The global fuel cell industry is witnessing a robust growth, driven by increasing demand for clean, efficient and distributed power solutions. Global decarbonisation initiatives, growing electricity demand, and technological advancements are accelerating the adoption of fuel cells across stationary power, transportation, and industrial applications.
Fuel cells generate electricity through an electrochemical process using fuels such as hydrogen, natural gas, among others. Their high efficiency, modularity and ability to provide continuous distributed power make them specifically suitable for applications requiring continuous power generation with high reliability. Continued advancements in materials, system design and manufacturing processes are also improving their commercial viability, thereby enabling them to capture greater market share.
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells - Fastest Growing Market
Among various fuel-cell technologies, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs), which can utilise methane as a fuel to generate electricity, are gaining prominence in stationary power applications owing to their high efficiency and ability to provide continuous power. The technology is increasingly finding applications across commercial and industrial facilities, utilities and, more recently, data centres, where demand for reliable, distributed and rapidly deployable power is growing significantly.
Al-Powered Data Centres - A Significant Growth Driver
The rapid expansion of Al and cloud computing infrastructure is driving unprecedented growth in data-centre electricity requirements. At the same time, constraints in existing power grids and extended grid-interconnection timelines are emerging as critical challenges for developers, particularly in the US. According to Rystad Energy, grid-interconnection timelines for large loads in the US have increased significantly and can now extend to approximately three to six years, prompting data-centre operators to increasingly evaluate dedicated on-site power generation.
Fuel cells are emerging as one of the solutions to this challenge due to their combination of continuous power availability, modular scalability and relatively rapid deployment. Certain commercially available SOFC systems can provide on-site power in as little as 90 days, enabling data-centre developers to accelerate the deployment of computing capacity without waiting for lengthy grid connections or large-scale generation infrastructure. This speed-to-power advantage is particularly relevant for Al-powered data centres, where access to electricity is increasingly becoming a critical factor determining the pace at which new capacity can be brought online.
Compared with large conventional generation projects, which can involve significantly longer development and commissioning timelines, modular fuel-cell systems can be deployed progressively alongside increases in data-centre capacity. This provides developers with greater flexibility to align power availability with the rapid scaling of Al computing infrastructure.
According to Rystad Energy, revenues from the data-centre fuel-cell market are projected to increase nearly tenfold, from approximately USD 2.8 Bn in 2025 to around USD 30 Bn by 2030, driven largely by the rapid expansion of Al-led data-centre infrastructure. The sector has a contracted order book of approximately 9 GWe, including framework agreements involving major companies such as Oracle, AEP, Equinix and Brookfield, indicating growing industry confidence in fuel cells as a long-term power solution.
Rystad Energy further projects approximately 10.4 GWe of cumulative fuel-cell demand from data centres between 2026 and 2030. Around 40% of projected US data-centre capacity in 2030 is modelled as likely to pursue dedicated on-site power generation rather than relying solely on conventional grid connections. North America is expected to account for approximately 91% of global installed on-site power-generation capacity, supported by grid constraints, policy incentives and an established domestic supply chain. The growing opportunity is also translating into capacity expansion across the fuel-cell industry.

Data Centres Infrastructure Solutions Industry Potential
The rapid expansion of Artificial Intelligence (AI), cloud computing and high-performance computing is driving significant investment in data centre infrastructure globally. According to McKinsey, cumulative investment in data centres worldwide could reach nearly USD 7 trillion by 2030, including approximately USD 5.2 trillion required to support AI-related workloads alone.
The growth in AI computing is fundamentally changing the power and thermal requirements of data centres. Energy-intensive AI infrastructure is driving increasing demand for equipment ranging from transformers, electrical distribution and power-management systems to advanced cooling and thermal-management solutions. According to Bank of America estimates cited by Reuters, power consumption per AI rack could increase to more than 1.5 MWe by the end of 2030, nearly 100 times the power consumption of a conventional rack. As power density increases, the corresponding requirement for efficient cooling and thermal-management systems
According to Bank of America estimates cited by Reuters, power consumption per AI rack could increase to more than 1.5 MW by the end of 2030, nearly 100 times the power consumption of a conventional rack. As power density increases, the corresponding requirement for efficient cooling and thermal-management systems is also expected to rise significantly.
This is creating opportunities for specialised equipment manufacturers across the data centre infrastructure value chain. Power availability, cooling capacity and speed of deployment are increasingly becoming critical considerations for data centre developers, resulting in growing adoption of prefabricated and modular infrastructure solutions that can be manufactured offsite and rapidly integrated at the project location.
The emerging opportunity is reflected in the strategic expansion of global engineering and energy-technology companies into this segment. SLB, for instance, has established a dedicated Data Center Solutions business providing modular infrastructure across power delivery, electrical systems and cooling. Its portfolio includes modular server-hall infrastructure integrating power, networking and cooling; Central Utility Buildings housing chillers and air-and liquid-cooling equipment; and modular electrical rooms housing medium-and low-voltage switchgear. SLB states that its modular approach can compress deployment timelines by up to 40% compared with traditional site-built construction.
SLB has also expanded its collaboration with NVIDIA, becoming the modular design partner for NVIDIA DSX AI factories, while continuing to scale its manufacturing capabilities to address growing demand for AI infrastructure.
The increasing participation of global engineering companies in this segment reflects the significant long-term opportunity emerging across power, cooling, modular infrastructure and associated equipment.
As global data centre capacity expands and AI workloads become increasingly power-intensive, the need to improve power efficiency, cooling efficiency and the overall environmental performance of data centres is expected to become increasingly important. This is creating opportunities for the development of more energy-efficient and lower-carbon data centre infrastructure, while providing a significant long-term opportunity for precision engineering companies capable of manufacturing critical components and assemblies for complex power, cooling and modular infrastructure systems
Opportunity for MTAR
The Company has expanded its Low Carbon Solutions portfolio into data centre infrastructure solutions and has received first-article orders from SLB for the manufacture of sheet-metal components and assemblies. Upon successful qualification of first articles, this opportunity has the potential to develop into a scalable revenue stream for the Company, supported by increasing investments in AI data centres and the growing requirement for efficient power, cooling and modular infrastructure solutions.
