NTPC plans to meet quarter of its coal demand from captive mines

After calling a halt to imported coal, India’s largest power company, NTPC, is aiming to source at least 25% of its thermal coal requirement from its own mines, over the next five years.
The power utility will be commissioning 4 000 MW of additional thermal power generating capacity in the current financial year, with Coal India Limited (CIL) expected to make available the entire thermal coal requirement.
