The Ministry of Coal is scheduled to host an industry interaction on February 16 in Hyderabad aiming to foster the development and proliferation of coal/lignite gasification projects across the nation.

In this regard, through strategic partnerships with industry stakeholders, the Ministry of Coal seeks to accelerate the adoption of gasification technologies and facilitate the development of a robust ecosystem for coal/lignite-based energy solutions.

The event will bring together key stakeholders, including policymakers, industry leaders, and investors, to deliberate on the opportunities and challenges associated with coal/lignite gasification projects.

Moreover, the participants will engage in discussions, share best practices, and explore avenues for collaboration to drive the growth of gasification initiatives in India.
