India targets 1.5 billion tonnes of coal production by 2030

The Indian government is determined to increase coal production to 1.5 billion tonnes by 2030, according to Pralhad Joshi, Minister of Coal and Mines. The initiative aims to address the growing energy needs of the country and support various sectors heavily reliant on coal. Joshi highlighted the importance of coal in India's energy mix and its role in powering industries and ensuring energy security. The government's strategy involves streamlining the coal production process, leveraging advanced technologies, and addressing environmental concerns through sustainable practices.

This ambitious target aligns with India's broader energy goals and the need to balance economic growth with environmental considerations. As the nation continues to develop, the demand for energy is expected to surge, making it imperative to enhance domestic coal production. However, achieving this goal also raises questions about the environmental impact and the ongoing global transition towards cleaner energy sources. The government's commitment to boosting coal output underscores the complex challenge of balancing economic development and environmental sustainability in the energy sector.
