Change in Emission Regulations: India has reversed a mandate requiring coal-fired power plants to install $30 billion worth of clean-air equipment, easing sulphur emission rules for 79% of these plants outside polluted urban areas.
Implementation Timeline: While 10% of the coal-fired power plants near major cities must still install desulphurisation equipment by December 2027, the decision follows a review by the Central Pollution Control Board regarding carbon dioxide emissions from existing control measures.
