New Delhi (28.06.2021): NTPC has become the first Indian energy company to declare its Energy Compact goals as part of UN High-level Dialogue on Energy (HLDE). It has set a target to install 60 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2032, besides aiming at a 10% reduction in net energy intensity by 2032.
Further, the company has declared that it will form at least 2 international alliances/groups to facilitate clean energy research and promote sustainability in the energy value chain by 2025.
The above-mentioned targets were announced at the recently-held ‘Ministerial Thematic Forums for the HDLE’ event. The commitment from NTPC was mentioned on the UN’s website as well.
Further, the UN is set to convene a high-level dialogue in September 2021 to promote the implementation of the energy-related goals and targets of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
NTPC has been taking various steps in increasing its green energy portfolio by adding significant capacities of Renewable Energy (RE) sources. The Company had earlier planned to have a minimum of 32 GW capacity through RE sources constituting nearly 25% of its overall power generation capacity by 2032. This development will prove to be a huge boost for the nation’s largest energy producer that will raise its position in the green energy map of the country.
