NTPC has defined its plans to increase its coal production<\/strong>, among the blocks allocated by the State, by approximately 16% for the 2024 – 2025 period, with the objective of meeting the country’s increasing energy demand.<\/p>\n\n

Increase coal capacity and production<\/h2>\n\n

In order to contribute to the supply of its energy needs, NTPC aims to achieve an output of 40 million tons of coal<\/strong>, compared to 34.38 million tons in previous years. This increase in production is intended to cover 15% of its estimated fuel needs.<\/p>\n\n

The initiative to expand the extraction of coal from the so-called captive blocks is part of a broader strategy to boost domestic coal production<\/a> and reduce imports<\/strong>. NTPC has indicated that this growth will be supported by the implementation of various approaches and technologies, including improved mine planning and automation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

In the past years 2022 and 2023, NTPC and its partners imported approximately 16.5 million tons of coal, a figure that decreased to 10.5 million tons between 2023 and 2024. This increase in individual production capacity helps the country’s objectives of strengthening local production and satisfying its demands<\/strong>. India’s thermal coal imports stood at 14.69 million tons in February, up from 10.28 million tons in the previous year.<\/p>\n\n

NTPC’s 2025 target<\/h2>\n\n

NTPC is responsible for a quarter of India’s electricity demand, having produced 422 TWh in 2023 and 2024, an increase of 6% over the previous fiscal year. The company plans to expand its generation capacity by 5GW in the current year<\/strong>, following an addition of 3.9GW in 2023 and 2024, for a total capacity of approximately 76GW.<\/p>\n\n

Of the new capacity proposed for 2024 and 2025, 60% will be based on renewable energy, with the remainder corresponding to thermal energy<\/strong>. NTPC’s current renewable energy operating capacity is 3.5GW.<\/p>\n\n

The goal of \n India’s NTPC<\/a>\n<\/strong> is to raise its non-fossil energy capacity to 45-50% of its generation portfolio by 2032, with a planned renewable energy capacity of 60GW of the projected 130GW in total. The company currently has more than 20GW of renewable energy projects under development.<\/p>\n\n
