Coal India Limited (CIL) has announced a massive investment of around $3 billion in renewable energy, aiming to build up to 4.5 GW of capacity. A memorandum of understanding was signed with AM Green, a major ammonia producer, to enhance India's green hydrogen and ammonia production capabilities. The collaboration includes plans for solar and wind energy generation totaling 2,500-3,000 MW and 1,500-2,000 MW, respectively, with sites considered in different regions of India. The move aligns with India's goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2070. The partnership with AM Green, supported by Greenko Group, aims to be a leading producer of green hydrogen and ammonia globally. CIL's chairman, P M Prasad, highlighted the company's commitment to a sustainable future while emphasizing the importance of coal in meeting India's current energy demands. The company plans to play a proactive role in both traditional coal operations and renewable energy development. Despite the significant investment in renewables, CIL remains dedicated to expanding coal-fired power generation, with plans to increase capacity by 80 GW by 2032. The company aims to invest in coal-fired power plants while continuing its coal mining operations. The collaboration with Damodar Valley Corp. focuses on expanding the Chandrapura Thermal Power Station, supporting India's energy needs. CIL's long-term strategy involves diversifying its business portfolio to include thermal power and renewable energy. India's energy landscape showcases a dual focus on coal and renewable energy, with the government aiming to increase coal-fired capacity to 222 GW by 2032 and renewable energy capacity to at least 500 GW by 2030.
