ESL Steel Switches To PNG In Pact With IOCL

ESL Steel Ltd has entered into an agreement with Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) for the supply of Piped Natural Gas (PNG) to its steel plant in Bokaro, marking a significant move towards cleaner industrial energy. The agreement was formalised in the presence of senior leaders from both organisations, including IOCL Executive Director Manoj K. Sharma, General Manager Amiya Kumar Behera, ESL Steel Deputy CEO and WTD Ravish Sharma, and CFO Anand Dubey.

Welcoming the collaboration, Ravish Sharma said the transition from LPG to PNG represents a major step towards operational efficiency and sustainability. “By adopting PNG—a cleaner and more dependable fuel—we are strengthening our commitment to reliable operations and environmental stewardship,” he noted.

Under the agreement, PNG will replace LPG in selected operational processes at the Bokaro plant, providing a cleaner, safer and more reliable energy source. The partnership also reinforces broader cooperation between IOCL and ESL Steel on sustainable fuel solutions.

The initiative forms part of ESL Steel’s wider strategy to improve energy security, reduce emissions and enhance overall operational performance.
