Public sector steel major SAIL has dropped its plan to set up a stainless steel special economic zone (SEZ) at Salem in Tamil Nadu. Instead, the company has decided to set up a wind energy plant to meet its renewable energy requirement.
The government-owned steel major has already invited the expression of interests (EoIs) from private energy firms to develop the wind energy unit, according to sources privy to the development.
