NLC India Limited (NLCIL), a Navratna Public Sector Enterprise under the Ministry of Coal, Government of India, has stepped into the 10th year of renewable energy generation on September 28. This day marks a significant milestone, as it was on September 28, 2015, that the company embarked on its renewable energy (RE) journey by Commissioning a 10 MW solar photovoltaic power plant in Neyveli.
Under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, NLCIL is steadily transforming India’s energy landscape. Following the Prime Minister’s clarion call in 2015 for a robust shift towards renewable energy as India transitioned from ‘Megawatts to Gigawatts’, NLCIL became the first CPSE in the country to generate 1 GW of renewable energy, demonstrating its unwavering commitment to sustainable power generation.
NLCIL, primarily a Lignite-based power generating company, has ventured into renewable energy with 1,380 MW of solar power plants and 51 MW of wind power plants.
