NTPC looks to set up waste-to-charcoal plants in Haryana

Infrastructure  -  Jul 02,2024  - 

Haryana government said the state will soon set up waste-to-charcoal plants also known as green coal plants in Gurugram-Manesar and Faridabad.

After setting up the plants in Gurugram-Manesar and Faridabad, this initiative will be expanded to other cities in Haryana and the NVVNL officers will soon visit a few sites for establishing green coal plants, an official spokesperson said.

A meeting in this regard was held at Shram Shakti Bhawan in New Delhi, chaired by Union power minister Manohar Lal Khattar.

During this meeting, detailed discussions were held on NVVNL’s initiative to produce green coal from solid waste.

Green coal, also known as bio-coal, is a sustainable alternative to traditional waste, as it can be blended with regular coal for electricity generation in thermal power plants.

The NVVNL recently established a plant in Varanasi to produce green coal from solid waste. Once fully operational, this plant will consume 600 tonnes of waste and produce 200 tonnes of green coal, leaving very little residue.
