What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Jindal Steel's Angul plant utilizes coal gasification to produce syngas and ammonia. The government of India has promoted converting domestic coal into gas to reduce reliance on imported fuels and manage price volatility. The cabinet approved a ₹37,500 crore scheme to promote coal and lignite gasification, aiming for 100 million tonnes of capacity by 2030.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The technology allows steelmakers to use more of India's domestic coal reserves, including lower-grade coal. Syngas can be used in the direct reduced iron route for steelmaking, offering consistent quality. This shift supports national goals for industrial capacity and domestic energy security.

Jindal Steel Limited's operational capacity contributes to the national targets set by the National Coal Gasification Mission. The government is pushing coal gasification for economic growth.
