INDIA-POWER-COAL
A boy passes by an electricity transmission pylon close to the coal-fired thermal Power Plant of National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC), at Dadri in Gautam Budh Nagar district, Uttar Pradesh, India on May 5, 2022. Amid the rampant rise in power demand due to the prevailing heatwave, India is staring at a coal crisis, with stock critically low at 108 of its 173 thermal power plants. The power cuts are sparking scrutiny of country’s long reliance on coal, which is responsible for about 70% of India's electricity generation. (Photo by Mayank Makhija/NurPhoto)
