The Union ministry releases list of coal thermal power plants and their categorisation in line with its April 2021 notification

Nearly 78 per cent of the electricity generated in India from coal will not meet emission norms before 2024.

The Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) has released a draft list of the coal thermal power plants and their categorisation in line with the ministry’s April 2021 notification.

In April 2021, the MoEF&CC in April 2021 amended the 2015 notification to put coal thermal power plants under three categories, determining the ‘third-time’ revised deadline for meeting emission norms.

About eight months since the amendment, the task force appointed to categorise the plants has finally come up with a list.

Coal thermal power plants contribute to over half sulphur dioxide (SO2) concentration, 30 per cent oxides of nitrogen (NOx), 20 per cent particulate matter (PM) in the ambient air.
