Vanya Steels to Build Rs 1 Billion Green Power Plant

Vanya Steels is investing Rs 1 billion to establish a 10 MW waste-to-energy captive power plant at its manufacturing facility in Koppal, Karnataka, a company official confirmed. The plant is slated for commissioning by 31 July 2025.
The facility will employ advanced Waste Heat Recovery Boiler (WHRB) technology to convert industrial waste heat into clean electricity, marking a significant step towards sustainable steel production in the region.
Krishan Kumar Jallan, Founder and Chairman of A-One Steel Group, stated, “This WHRB-based power project will transform residual heat from the steelmaking process—typically lost to the environment—into a dependable, green energy source.”
The captive plant is expected to reduce reliance on grid electricity, lower operational costs, and significantly curb carbon emissions, thereby advancing both environmental objectives and energy independence.
“By harnessing waste heat to generate clean power, we are demonstrating that responsible manufacturing is not only environmentally beneficial but also a strategic advantage. It strengthens competitiveness, uplifts communities, and supports India’s Aatma Nirbhar Bharat vision,” Jallan added.
Vanya Steels, a leading manufacturer of high-grade sponge iron, is a subsidiary of A-One Steel Group, one of South India’s largest integrated steel producers.
