According to the China Phosphorus Coal Industry Network, on September 12, an official from Indian Coal Corporation said that despite the rapid growth of renewable energy sources, coal will remain India’s primary fuel for power generation over the next 20 years. 　　Prasad, the marketing director of Indian Coal Corporation, said that currently, thermal coal accounts for 55% of electricity generation in India. Despite India’s ambitious plans to develop renewable energy sources, coal-based power generation will still account for 48-54% by 2040. 　　Prasad said that the goal of Indian Coal Corporation is to reach a coal production volume of 1 billion tons by 2019. In the 2016-17 fiscal year, domestic coal production increased, while India’s imports of coal by sea declined by 19% on a year-on-year basis.
