CCEA gives nod to new coal linkage policy

CCEA gives nod to new coal linkage policy

A new coal linkage policy to ensure adequate supply of the fuel to power plants through reverse (उलटा) auction received approval of the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs today. “The CCEA today approved a policy for providing linkages to power plants,” official sources said. The new coal linkage policy for power plants will help producers ensure fuel supplies in an organised manner. The government’s initiatives(पहल) as well as international market conditions have helped bring down price of the dry fuel and boosted (बढ़ाया) domestic production. But a mechanism is required for providing coal linkages to power plants at competitive rates. According to sources, the new policy will address this concern and put in place a proper mechanism for sourcing of the dry fuel by the power plants as per their schedules.
