Coal India, NTPC, Railways can help meet clean energy goals by 2050: Report
Three of India’s biggest central state-owned enterprises — Coal India Limited (CIL), NTPC, and Indian Railways — can help the country reach its climate goals while seizing a share of the clean energy market and mitigating an estimated 22-28 per cent cash flow gap by 2050 as India gears itself towards net-zero, a new report by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) said on Tuesday.
The study, India’s state-owned Energy Enterprises, 2020-2050: Identifying Evidence-Based Diversification Strategies, uses public sector undertakings (PSUs) in the coal sector to show how energy businesses can identify their future uncertainties while also identifying opportunities in the changing energy system.
