In 21st century, the world faces serious threat of not having adequate and secure supply of energy at affordable prices and India is no exception. Coal as you are aware has been a major source of energy for India.
Coal is now the world’s fastest-growing fuel. In fact, coal has a strong record of positive contribution to the world’s energy requirement. Coal provides 28% of all primary energy and 40% of the world’s electricity. It is also a direct input into 66% of global steel production. As an affordable and accessible fuel, it would be hard to overstate the importance of coal for raising living standards in many developing countries.
