We have requested plants based on imported coal to switch their technology to utilise domestic fuel. There is no shortage of coal in the country,\u201d Reddy, the minister for coal and mines, told .<br \/>\nCoal production usually faces hindrances during the monsoon season.<br \/>\nSome technical issues related to commercial mines were being addressed, he said without divulging the details.<br \/>\nSpeaking on the power ministry\u2019s advisory related to four per cent imported coal blending for domestic thermal plants, the minister said, Coal India is successfully ramping up production but the blending is advised to \u201cmitigate the risk of blackout due to sudden rise in electricity demand\u201d.<br \/>\nEarlier this month, the Nominated Authority of the Coal Ministry held a meeting to review the status of both operational and non-operational captive and commercial coal mines.<br \/>\nDuring the meeting, the authority stressed on the need for operationalising coal blocks that are in advanced stages of development. The department appreciated efforts of all allottees in increasing coal production and urged them to achieve the committed output targets for the 2024-25 financial year (FY\u201925).<br \/>\nThe Ministry of Coal has allocated or auctioned 161 mines with a peak-rated capacity of 575 million tonnes. Of these, 58 have received mine opening permission, and 54 are operational.<br \/>\nLast year, these mines produced 147 million tonnes, constituting 15 per cent of the country\u2019s total coal production.<br \/>\nIn a review meeting held in early June, Reddy stressed on exploration of more blocks for auctions.<br \/>\nThe government had relaxed technical eligibility for coal block auctions to attract more participants.<br \/>\nIt has recently concluded the 10th round of coal block auctions.<br \/>\nThe union minister had urged all stakeholders to work diligently to achieve at least 175 million tonnes of production from captive and commercial coal blocks this year, representing a 19 per cent growth.<br \/>\nAs of June 30, 54 captive and commercial coal mines are under production, with 32 allocated to the power sector, 12 to the non-regulated sector and 10 for the sale of coal.<br \/>\nThe current production from these mines stands at 39.53 million tonnes, registering a strong 35 per cent year-on-year growth.<br \/>\nAn additional 11 mines are expected to commence production in FY\u201925.<br \/>\nFurthermore, 65 non-operational coal blocks are in various stages of obtaining regulatory clearances, distributed across nine states \u2013 Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Odisha, and West Bengal, the ministry said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20284\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20284\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20284\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-21-at-3.51.36-PM-300x169.png\" alt=\"No Shortage Of Coal For Power Sector: Minister G Kishan Reddy\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20284\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">No Shortage Of Coal For Power Sector: Minister G Kishan Reddy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KOLKATA, July 21: Union Minister G Kishan Reddy said there is \u201cno shortage\u201d of coal for the power sector and the Centre will ensure adequate supply of the dry fuel to meet demand.
