According to an official statement released, Haryana was announced to be soon receiving waste-to-charcoal plants, commonly referred to as green coal plants. It was disclosed that an MoU for the establishment of these plants would be signed between NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam (NVVNL) and the Haryana Government. The initiative, initially focusing on Gurugram-Manesar and Faridabad, is planned for expansion to other cities across Haryana. NVVNL officials are scheduled to conduct site visits shortly to facilitate the setup of these green coal plants. The statement mentioned that Union Power and Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had played a pivotal role in these developments. It was emphasized that Khattar had exerted considerable effort towards addressing the growing issue of municipal solid waste and leveraging it for renewable energy production. The statement added that discussions during a meeting held at Shram Shakti Bhawan in New Delhi, chaired by Khattar on Friday evening, focused extensively on NVVNL's initiative to produce green coal from solid waste. The statement further explained that green coal, also known as bio-coal, offers a sustainable alternative to conventional waste, as it can be blended with regular coal for electricity generation in thermal power plants.
