Unmatched Strategic Relevance:

Coal sector plays a crucial role in a country like India where energy security is a critical pillar for sustained economic growth and prosperity. The energy security of the country and its prosperity are integrally linked to efficient and effective use of its most abundant, affordable and dependent fuel, coal. In Indian economy, a significant proportion of Coal’s demand is for power generation in the thermal power sector. The balance demand is through non- regulated sectors comprising steel, cement, captive power plants etc. It is envisaged that new segments such as power demand from use of electric vehicles and demand for coal from the chemicals sector etc. would also add to the existing demand. Today India is the 2nd largest producer of coal in the world. The All India Coal Production during 2023-24 stood at 997.25 MT with a positive growth of 11.65%. Coal India Limited (CIL) produced 773.647 MT with a positive growth of 10.02% during 2023-24. Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) production of coal during 2023-24 was 70.02 MT with a positive growth of 4.30%. Small quantities of coal are also produced by TISCO, IISCO, DVC and others.

The dependability on coal may be gauged by the fact that about 49% of India’s installed power capacity is coal (excluding Lignite)-based. CIL produces around 78% of India’s overall coal production and it alone meets to the tune of 40% of primary commercial energy requirement. As India aims to increase its power generation capacity in coming years, to cater to demand from rising economy, population growth and rapid urbanization, a significant portion of the capacity is expected to come from coal itself.
