AIPEF terms Centre’s coal import-related directives an additional load
Power engineers’ body AIPEF on Monday termed the Centre’s import-related directives for the thermal plants as an “additional load” on the coal-fired power units.
The Union Ministry of Power has issued a directive that all thermal power plants of state governments, central government and the private sector should import 4 per cent of coal by March 2024 to meet the shortage of coal in thermal power plants running on domestic coal, the All India Power Engineers Federation said in a statement.
