Bharat Petroleum Corporation (BPCL), a public sector petroleum marketing company, is considering developing 240 MW of renewable power capacity during the fiscal year 2023-24. According to a top BPCL official, the company's renewable growth will cost Rs 16 billion. The government of India planned to divest BPCL, however the process was stalled due to a lack of buyer interest. The PSU now appears to be determined to make up for the time wasted while waiting for suitors.
