India Enhances Coal Supply and Stock Management for Thermal Power Plants
India's thermal power sector is managing coal supply challenges amid rising energy demand and declining stockpiles. The government is increasing coal supplies from captive mines and Coal India subsidiaries while urging improved loading efficiency to maintain steady fuel availability. Revised coal stock norms and the SHAKTI policy aim to enhance fuel security and inventory planning. Coordination among the Ministries of Coal, Power, and Railways continues to address supply disruptions and support grid reliability during periods of constrained coal availability.
