The company is also set to establish a new 2x800 MW thermal power plant near its Naini coal block in Odisha, alongside the development of 800 MW floating solar power plants, a green hydrogen plant, and a battery storage system aimed at ensuring a sustainable future.

Balaram noted that over 50% of the company’s workforce consists of youth, emphasizing that SCCL can supply coal to clients at competitive prices while enhancing productivity and quality to alleviate the burden on power consumers.
