Strategic Commitment: Vedanta integrates renewable energy usage and afforestation in its dual approach to sustainability.

Quote: "This partnership reflects our dedication to cleaner energy solutions," stated Priya Agarwal Hebbar, Chairperson, Hindustan Zinc Ltd. Production Goals: The cleaner energy strategy complements Vedanta Aluminium's FY24 production of 2.37 million tonnes, aligning with India's growing demand for aluminium in key sectors.
