Coal India had over 239,000 employees during financial year 2023. Both conventional and non-conventional energy sources work actively to meet the energy requirements of the south Asian nation. Despite not being environmentally-friendly, more than 50 percent of the country’s primary energy consumption comes from coal. Coal India Limited was the largest coal-producing company in the world, with its headquarters in Kolkata, West Bengal, and is state-owned.
Coal India
Coal India operates some 322 mines, and the consultancy is spread over eight provincial states in the country. It commands nearly 75 percent of the Indian coal market. The production comes through eight wholly owned subsidiaries of the company.
Future of the energy sector in India
Coal consumption in India has increased steadily over the recent years, excluding a slight decrease in 2020. With global energy prices rising, the wholesale price index of coal in India reached its peak in recent years in 2023. Despite the climate agreements of Copenhagen and Paris to focus on renewable and clean energy installations across the country, a report from NITI Aayog estimated the share of coal to be over 40 percent of the energy mix in 2040. However, recent government initiatives aim to reduce this estimated coal consumption and transfer this load over to the renewable sources of energy.
