The Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change (MoEF&CC) issued guidelines to achieve 100% utilization of ash with least burden on electricity consumers. These guidelines were a response to recent amendments made in advisories pertaining to ash utilization by Thermal Power Plants (TPPs). These guidelines were issued on March 15, 2024. It may be recalled that on December 31, 2021 MOEF&CC had issued a notification regarding the utilization of ash by coal or lignite-based TPPs. Subsequently, amendments were made to this notification in December 30, 2022, and January 1, 2024.
