The Government has entrusted the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB) with the responsibility of safety in the Nuclear Power Plants in India. Nuclear safety and security aspects are reviewed by AERB before giving clearance for various stages of the construction, commissioning and operation of NPPs from siting onwards. AERB has specified safety and security requirements for NPPs in its Codes and Guides, which are in line with international standards.
AERB has a rigorous process for reviewing Nuclear Safety and Nuclear Security aspects of nuclear power projects through multi-tier reviews and periodic regulatory inspections, to ensure adherence to the regulatory requirements.
