mjunction Organized the 16th Indian Coal Markets Conference
News Desk, News Nation 360 : India’s largest B2B e-commerce company, mjunction services limited, is organising the 16th Indian Coal Markets Conference at ITC Sonar in Kolkata on March 20-21, 2023. In order to capture the essence of the fast-changing energy dynamics, the theme of the Conference has been chosen as: “Coal Rush: Growing in a Green world”. In keeping with the theme, the conference will provide a platform to discuss the simultaneous growth in the coal and renewables sectors, and what that would mean for the viability of fresh investments in either of these sectors. Speaking on this occasion, Vinaya
Varma, MD & CEO of mjunction Services Limited said that this is a stiff target as it would require 80 million tons more coal over 700 million tons expected in FY23. In India, coal is critical for energy security and independence amid geo-political risks related to gas and oil supplies. So, until the energy transition process starts playing out in full, coal will continue to stay much in demand as the most dependable and economical source of energy for India.
