GreyOak summary
A study by C-DEP and CWS recommends prioritizing hydrogen, SNG, methanol, and ammonia production from coal to reduce India's reliance on imported fuels and fertilizers. The analysis supports the government's Rs 37,500 crore scheme targeting 75 million tonnes of annual coal gasification capacity by 2030. PNGRB Chairperson Anil Kumar Jain noted that while policy support exists, industry must first demonstrate commercial viability before targeted prioritization.
