Coal India to invest $201m in R&D by fiscal 2030
Coal India plans to invest 19-billion rupees ($200.7-million) in research and development (R&D) by fiscal year 2030, the State-run miner said on Tuesday.
The miner is researching clean coal, net-zero technologies, sustainable materials, mine re-purposing, and recovery of rare earth and critical minerals through partnerships with scientific institutions.
Coal India has committed 2.53-billion rupees to three Indian Institutes of Technology, it said, which will be released in phases.
Its R&D facility, called the National Centre for Coal and Energy Research, is also overseeing 19 R&D projects with a total outlay of 2.25-billion rupees at other scientific institutions.
Coal India's R&D expenditure quadrupled to 2.45-billion rupees in fiscal 2025, from 610-million rupees a year earlier, it said.
