New Delhi (13.09.2024): With the guidance of Union Minister
of Coal and Mines G Kishan Reddy, the nation has made significant strides
towards a sustainable and low-carbon future. India is committed to a low-carbon
emission path while pursuing its development goals, as pledged at COP 26. The
nation aims to achieve 500 GW of non-fossil energy capacity by 2030. As a
leading and responsible Central Public Sector Enterprise, NLC India Limited
(NLCIL) plans three-fold increase in its total power generation capacity by
2030 to address the dual requirements of energy security and sustainability.
NLCIL aims to achieve a renewable energy (RE) portfolio mix of 50 per cent of
its total planned capacity, increasing its RE capacity from 1.43 GW to 10.11
GW. The above plan entails an investment of approximately Rs
50,000 cr in Renewable portfolio, which will support India's RE target and
contributes to the broader aim of achieving 'Net Zero' emissions by 2070. This
enhanced target aligns with the Government’s “Panchamrit” initiative announced
at the COP 26 Summit as India's contribution & commitment towards climate
action.
