Meeting India’s
growing energy needs
At CIL, we play a strategic role in meeting India’s growing energy requirements,
as the economy continues to expand, with all sectors contributing to
the growth momentum.
In the absence of cost-effective and sustainable sources of fuel, coal will
continue to be the dominant source in our country’s fuel mix in the medium
term, as it offers reliability and stability of supply at affordable prices.
For over five decades, we have established a reliable track record of
operations in coal mining and hold around 48% of total proven coal reserves
of India. Moreover, we are reaching new milestones in our production
volumes every year, acting as a major catalyst in fuelling India’s growth story.
In FY2024, we produced 773.647 million tonnes (MTs) of coal, registering
10% growth over a high base of 703.204 MTs of FY 2023. This is the first
instance that CIL recorded double-digit growth in two successive years
since its inception. While all the coal producing arms of CIL have recorded
positive growth, five of them (BCCL, CCL, NCL, WCL and MCL) have stepped
over their respective annual targets for the second consecutive year.
Committed to playing a pivotal role in the nation’s socio-economic progress,
we are further ramping up our capital investments, targeting 1 billion tonne
of coal production by FY26. We are also aiming to become a net-zero
energy company by setting up 3000 MW Solar Power Projects to offset
the current fossil fuel-based power requirement.

Government Initiatives
The regulatory environment surrounding the critical minerals of Lithium, Nickel, Cobalt, and Graphite is evolving rapidly, with
governments around the world taking proactive steps to secure domestic supplies and promote sustainable extraction and
processing. In India, the government has recognized the strategic importance of these minerals for the country's economic and
energy security, and has implemented several initiatives to encourage investment and development in these sectors.
