India on Thursday said it will scale up nuclear energy production to 60,000 megawatts by 2030 after signing the pending N-deals with more countries.

"It is our expectation to achieve generation of 60,000 MW of nuclear energy by 2030. The earlier target was 20,000 MW by 2020. The expectation has been increased with the kind of opportunities we are having now with more N-deals coming up for signing," Shyam Saran, Special Envoy to Prime Minister on the Nuclear Deal, told reporters here.
